Mediterraneo [English translation]

White and azure you are

With islands standing there

The rocks and the sea

With seagulls

Mediterranean Sea to see

With oranges

Mediterranean Sea to eat

The mountain over there

And the road that softly comes down

Between the pine trees and the Sun

A town stands

Mediterranean Sea to discover

With churches

Mediterranean Sea to pray

Sit down here

And glance down there

Between the olive trees

The water is dark, almost blue

And up there

A hawk flies

It almost seems it is looking down at us

Standing still

Largest than ever

Look up there

That cloud that goes

Flies down

Into eternity

That long line

Of silent people along the road

Praying softly

Under the Sun

Mediterranean Sea to suffer

Under the Sun

Mediterranean See for dying

Sit down here

And let yourself go like this

Let the Sun

Enter you

And breathe

As much air as you can

The perfumes that

You smell too

Scattered around us

Look up there

That cloud that goes

Flies down

Into eternity
