La Bellezza - Fabrizio Frabetti

Sit down to watch the sky with me
two worshippers of life: that’s us
and never a moment, no moment should ever escape us
for any reason in the world.
Not even for commitments, not even for money
not even for glory or revenge
that you’ve been working for all your life
and you know how much it has cost...
You know that only beauty will remain, only beauty, beauty.

So not even for pride, not even for the light
seen at the end of that night you were born
it’s certainly not your fault if you can’t seize it, you just found yourself there.
Not even to feel like others
not even to find someone to understand you
and tell your story, your terror of being alone.
Only beauty matters, beauty matters, only beauty.

Not for a glass of water just because you’re thirsty
not for your heart if it's just sick
not for a legal obligation, not to please your flock.
Not because you’re tired of madness, not because the police said so
not for fear of understanding, not for having heard it said.
You know that only beauty will remain, beauty, only your beauty.
Only beauty matters, beauty matters, only beauty.
