Aprile Millo:
Sì, fuggiamo...
Già sogno un incantato
Asil di pace,
Dove soavemente uniti ognor vivrem.
Aprile Millo & Rufus Wainwright:
Lontano, lontano, lontano,
Sui flutti d'un ampio oceano,
Fra i roridi effluvi del mar,
Fra l'alghe, fra i fior, fra le palme,
Il porto dell'intime calme,
L'azzurra isoletta m'appar.
M'appare sul cielo sereno
Ricinta d'un arcobaleno
Specchiante il sorriso del sol.
La fuga dei liberi amanti speranti,
Migranti, raggianti,
Dirige a quell'isola il volo,
La fuga dei liberi amanti,
La fuga dei liberi amanti speranti,
Migranti, raggianti,
Dirige a quell'isola il volo,
Lontano, lontano, lontano.
