Tremo E T' Amo

I Tremble and Love You

Tremo E T' Amo

I love you and I trembleT'amo e tremo
Said the womanDisse la donna
To her soldierAl suo soldato
Who wasn’t coming backChe non tornava
Her voiceLa sua voce
Ran through the windNel vento correva
Over the snowSopra la neve
Where he was fightingDove lui combatteva

I tremble and love youTremo e t'amo
She said, cryingDisse e piangeva
In the dark of the hallNel buio della sala
Someone was laughingQualcuno rideva
To mock the fearPer far torto alla paura
Of this love that was already endingA questo amore che giá finiva

The memory betrays the mindIl ricordo tradisce la mente
The soldier feels nothing anymoreIl soldato non sente piú niente

SuddenlyD'improvviso
He was taken from behindFu preso alle spalle
By his enemyDal suo nemico
Who spoke strangelyChe strano parlava
Of roses, wine, and thingsDelle rose, del vino e di cose

That promised him another lifeChe un'altra vita gli prometteva
But how many bridesMa quante spose
The war took awayLa guerra toglieva
From the arms of the first nightDalle braccia della prima sera

I tremble and I'm coldTremo e ho freddo
Said the soldierDisse il soldato
To his enemy who was watching himAl suo nemico che lo guardava
His voice remained in the windLa sua voce nel vento restava
On the audience that listened in silenceSulla platea che muta ascoltava
