Hey^^ I sang this song yesterday but I was too tired to upload it. Well, ok, first of all: I can't speak Italian, I don't understand the Italian language, and I don't know anything about the pronunciation. So, please do't tell me, that my pronunciation has "killed this beautiful song" as it did with the song "Once upon a December" in French, but fortunately this video doesn't exist any longer^^
Well, I have to say, that first I sang this song with my normal voice, but it wasn't good enough for me, so I sang it with my head-voice...I hope that's ok, because there's only one song on YouTube I sang with my head-voice - Once upon a dream. But well^^
This is "Figlio della luna", the Spanish version is named "Hijo de la luna", from Mecano. I hope you like it^^

Ps: There are some stanzas left out, because of my instrumental version.

Lyrics:

Per chi non fraintenda
narra la leggenda
di quella gitana
che pregò la luna bianca ed alta nel ciel
mentre sorrideva
lei la supplicava «fa che torni da me»

Luna adesso sei madre
ma chi fece di te
una donna non c'è
dimmi luna d'argento
come lo cullerai
se le braccia non hai
figlio della luna

Nacque a primavera un bambino
da quel padre scuro come il fumo
con la pelle chiara
gli occhi di laguna
come un figlio di luna
«questo è un tradimento
lui non è mio figlio
ed io no, non lo voglio»

Luna adesso sei madre
ma chi fece di te
una donna non c'è
dimmi luna d'argento
come lo cullerai
se le braccia non hai
figlio della luna

II gitano folle di dolore
colto proprio al centro dell'onore
l'afferrò gridando
la baciò piangendo
poi la lama affondò
corse sopra al monte
col bambino in braccio e lì lo abbandonò

Luna adesso sei madre
ma chi fece di te
una donna non c'è
dimmi luna d'argento
come lo cullerai
se le braccia non hai
figlio della luna

  • Hermosa voz! wow :D

  • @gatoscajetos english please^^ :D

  • Awesome ^^ Expecially if you don't know italian, it is impressing what you did: you made few errors. Also if the lyrics narrated a tragedy it is much better seeing you smiling than having a sad face :D I never heard it song this way and I really appreciated. I should add you're also a solar and beautiful girl. The italian "c'è" is pronunced like che in the english word "check"

  • @Marittimo1000 ah!! thank you very much! my poor italian^^ :D Thank you!

see all

  • @goldkehlchen1993 No I don't live in Germany unfortunately,This song is also in Spanish, I will love to translate the song with you and make something "singable" :)

  • @Mickji hm...I guess you're not living in Germany, but if you want, I can help you via youtube, I love translating lyrics into new language versions (some of my videos...), so, if you need some help :D But I can't understand everything in Italian (Latin is really not enough), if you could translate it, I could do the rhythmic and melodic parts, together with you, if you want^^
