Fabrizio De André - Recitativo (Corale)
#Canzonidrogate
We who beg for mercy are the addicts:
crossing the boundary of the inhuman
we came to know, too soon, the carrion
that puts an end to every cherished dream
Yet here we are in good company: the depraved, suicides, men and women locked up in the graves of a cemetery.
And on the other side of the barricade, instead: bankers, grocers, notaries, elected judges, men of law.
And even for these, the universal motto holds true:
"Men, that at the last minute
remorse may not assail you too late
for never having shown mercy
and may your breath not turn to a rattle:
know that death is watching you
whether you rejoice in the fields or among the chalk walls,
just as the peasant watches the grain growing
until it is ripe for the scythe." drogati: compagnia: invece: universale: respiro:
