La prima compagnia [English translation]

If there's someone who has given so much and little have they had

You certainly aren't my friend

Me tonight I'm drinking to the health

Of my first companionship

I want to talk about love

Just what I payed

In this life so much greed

We pay everything and well weighed

Easy love in an hour's time

Where you don't play your life

There's a little love but never any pain

Close the door and then it's over

I'm a man, not a saint

There's times I've put on a façade

And then I got it free though I'm not boasting

I took was looking for tenderness

Then we spoke in private

Of old family stories

Of sad things and violence

Of who gives nothing and takes everything

I have neither shame nor regrets

Neither questions nor answers

I've lose the days and they are many

But I remember them and that much is enough

The thing that was well worth the cost

And the fear and repentance

The night everyone else stayed in

And we went against the wind

But when I meet her out on the street

It makes me a little sad

And I always think about where it falls

The flower of youth

If there's anyone who's given much and had little

You sure aren't my friend

Tonight I'm singing and I salute her

My first ever love
