ANDREA BOCELLI - L'INCONTRO - POEM RECITED BY BONO BOX (ENGLISH) GERARD DEPARDIEU (FRENCH) - TUSCAN SKIES 2001
*******************************************
Translation: L'Incontro /The Meeting
POEM:
While like a giant, proud and happy,
I take my baby in my arms, fragile, innocent, and alive
And like a little bird he's pushing against my chest
Abandoned, quiet and safe, for an instant, almost sweetly
My destiny appears to me like a dream
And I see myself, old and surrendered,
Seated there near the coalfire,
Waiting for the evening with the anxiety of a child,
Just to see him coming back home
With the gift of his smile, of his words and kindness
It's like a promise that can solve the enormous joy
Of one of his caresses
Then I wake up and I have already forgotten
But inside of me the kid's trapped soul advises me
That his new born child is already more important to me
than that of my own life....
just type in google: incontro lyrics u2 and you will see the italian text, including the translation

After my grandson was born, a little over a year ago, my son-in-law told me that he is the most important person in his life and that he loves him even more than my dautghter. I have since searched for the translation of L'Incontro and finally found it. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
