English
Translation

Colm Cille na Féile





I abandoned my friends and relations
For the sake of a woman I couldn’t win
She escaped like a little bird
Beneath the shade of the treetops
Pursued by the forest hawk
And the great fox of Binn Éadain1
The oystercatcher2down the mountain
The snipe and the moorhen
 

I wandered through Malin3 and Culmore4
I sought her in Sliabh Gabhra5
But no trace of my beloved could I find
My eyes grew blind
Until I reached the walls of the church
And from there westward to Leinster
To the great fair of Binn Éadain
But my love was not there
 

It was the kindly Colmcille6
Who woke me from my despair
And told me where the fairy woman was
She is lying secluded in a mountain glen
Surrounded by green leaves and ivy
She has a secure dwelling there
Her own secure refuge
 

I leapt to my feet
And I looked all around me
I took off my clothes
And the sword by my side
And I went to the beautiful woman
To kiss her in her nightgown
So that my heart would rise as light
As the swan on the branch
 

It was the kindly Columbkille
Who woke me from my despair
And told me where the fairy woman was
She is lying secluded in a mountain glen
Surrounded by green leaves and ivy
She has a dwelling there
Her own secure refuge
 

I leapt to my feet
And I looked all around me
I took off my clothes
And the sword by my side
And I went to the beautiful woman
To kiss her in her nightgown
So that my heart would rise as light
As the swan on the branch

Celebration





It's a celebration in the village, a big celebration for the bride
Who, after sixteen years, is finally getting married
In her wedding dress, how beautiful the young girl is
Her mother looks at her and, crying, takes joy in it
The grandfather says to the grandmother, amidst all the joy:
'My little granddaughter looks just like you!'
Between stairs and steps, the bride struts
Making everyone envious who still doesn’t have a fiancé
 

The village square is full of relatives
Some came by mule, others by donkey
They comfort the mother who is crying freely:
'A daughter at sixty has to get married'
There are tears in the church, as if a tragedy happened
The mother says to everyone: 'They've stolen my daughter!'
It’s time to say 'yes,' 'but what is he doing? Why isn’t he speaking?'
People are amazed, but the groom can’t speak
Because everyone forgot that he’s mute
Because everyone forgot that he’s mute
Because everyone forgot that he’s mute
Because everyone forgot that he’s mute

Sicilian honor





Sicilian
Sicilian
The honor I gave you is Sicilian
There is no wealth that can buy it
 

When she came to the village
She was a lost woman
People avoided her on the street
But I said to her, 'Love, my love'
She looked me straight in the eyes
Slowly, I took her to my home
After so much mud and dirt
She stayed there
And forgot about her tragic story
 

After two years, without saying goodbye
She returned to the mud, trampling my honor
What a disaster has fallen upon me
A street woman, without dignity
What is this life of mine?
I no longer have friends, honor... and not even you!
 

Sicilian

We are not like you





With your hatred
This world will end
In death, in pain
In terror, it will collapse
There will be no more life
But those like us
 

For sure, we are not like you
For sure, we are not like you
For sure, we are not like you
For sure, we are not like you
 

You say we are crazy
For our hair
But you don't realize
That there is no reason
To give us so much hatred
And so much cruelty
 

For sure, we are not like you
For sure, we are not like you
For sure, we are not like you
For sure, we are not like you
 

If one day you'll understand
That this is not right
For sure, you'll cry
For this society
For all this evil
That you did to us
 

For sure, we are not like you
For sure, we are not like you
For sure, we are not like you
For sure, we are not like you

Freedom





Freedom
In the sky
And within the stars
Freedom
A flower
In your hair
And within your heart
The freedom that is love
The love you give me
And I will shout to the sky
That I am alive
I will tell others
That I color myself
With your love
With the love you give me
That you give me
With your voice
With your hands
And with your warmth
You are a star
And you will guide me
And I, like a man
Will love you
Forever, that’s how I’ll be
And you, who run
For the infinite
Will point to me
The new light with your finger
And I will see you
