Lyrics
Strade Dell' Est
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Carichi i treni che dall'Albania
portano tanti stranieri in Siberia
tappeti antichi mercanti indiani
mettono su case tra Russia e Cina
strade dell'Est.
Spinto da i Turchi e dagli Iracheni
qui fece campo Mustafà Mullah Barazani
strade dell'Est d'immensi orizzonti
città nascoste di lingua persiana
da qui la Fine.
Dicono storie di Principesse
chiuse in castelli per troppa bellezza
fiori di Loto giardini stupendi
...e Leningrado oggi
strade dell'Est.
Di notte ancora ti può capitare
di udire suoni di armonium sfiatati
e vecchi curdi che da mille anni
offrono il petto a Novene...
