Libera nos Domine [English translation]

From black and gaunt death, from unnatural death,

From early death, from industrial death,

By police's hand, by a completely mad one's hand,

Provoked by dioxin or colouring, by a car crash,

By stray bullets of any kind and of any ideology,

From them all and from any other evil,

Libera, libera, libera libera nos Domine!

From all the idiots of any race and colour,

From sacred sanfedisti** and from their umpleasant scent,

From crazy Jacobins and from their fervor,

From visionaries and from martyrs of hatred and terror,

From people using Your name***, saying "It's for love's sake",

From Manichaeists**** screaming "Either for us or a traitor!",

Libera, libera, libera, libera nos Domine!

From poor in spirit and from intolerants,

From false intellectuals, philistine journalists,

From heroes, navigators, prophets, vates, saints,

From self-confident, presumptuous and arrogant people,

From the cynism of some, from the desires of many,

From the mean egoism of us all,

Libera, libera, libera, libera nos Domine!

From You, from Your icons and from Your fear,

From priests of any creed, from all their untruths,

From Hells and from Heavens, from an after-life,

From every utopia soothing this certain death,

From crusaders and from crusades, from all Holy Scriptures,

From fanatic believers of any kind and of any nature,

Libera, libera, libera, libera nos Domine,

Libera, libera, libera, libera nos Domine...
