October the 13th, we're going to the front

My dear I wish I was at home with you

This morning comrades of mine said we can begin to crow

Dirty war's over yet, just a matter of days

Walking in the mud all day, I can hear guns and distant shouts

I have no thought but for you and the cursed day I had to leave


Letter for an angel

Your words won't be carried across the skies

Letter for an angel


My love wait me for some days

On my return, in a while I hope

I'm eager to find you on my way

For a life of peace and joy

Letter for an angel


[Choirs :]

Santa Maria, dale tua benevolenza


Sunday November the 1st we got bad news from the front

We'll never finish with it, shall you still love me ?

Yesterday I had a dream of white lace and deep velvet

I have no thought but for you and the holy day we'll marry


Letter for an angel

Your words won't be carried across the skies

Letter for an angel


[Choirs :]

Santa Maria, dale tua benevolenza

Tragico destino, postuma lettera, cattivo presagio


I've gone for so many days

On my return, who can really know

If you'll be awaiting on my way

For that life of peace and joy

Letter for an angel
