(english lyrics by : Angelo Branduardi)

 

When the tempest ended 


For a while I wandered 


Through the corals  

I felt the sea with its weight on my skin 


And I despaired of jumping again in the sun  

But the desire for immensity


Shook my spine once again 


And I was able to rise from the abyss  

Do not shun the waves 


Though they bring the scent of the harpoon  

If it should strike it will not stop your leap 


It penetrates, but you'll discover your strenght  

And the desire for immensity 


Will stir you once again  

So let the salt from the sea 


Cleanse your heart
