Lyrics
Il vecchio
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.
Parla il vecchio che vive sul fiume
Racconta di uomini e mondi lontani.
Stringe un ramo già secco di ulivo.
Brucia l'incenso che sale nel cielo.
C'è luce sui suoi capelli lunghi fino
alle spalle
Tu chi sei, tu chi sei?
Tu che vedi oltre gli occhi miei
Dentro le parole, la mia ingenuità?
lo vorrei, io vorrei.
Diventare quello che tu sei:
Montagna solitaria abbracciata a Dio.
