Ven Pa Bailar - Live At The Conga Room, Los Angeles, CA, USA / 1999
Va, pensiero, sull'ali dorate;
Va, ti posa sui clivi, sui colli,
Ove olezzano tepide e molli
L'aure dolci del suolo natal!
Del Giordano le rive saluta,
Di Sïone le torri atterrate... Oh mia patria sì bella e perduta!
Oh membranza sì cara e fatal!
Arpa d'ôr dei fatidici vati
Perché muta dal salice pendi?
Le memorie nel petto raccendi,
Ci favella del tempo che fu!
O simile di Solima ai fati
Traggi un suono di crudo lamento,
O t'ispiri il Signore un concento
Che ne infonda al patire virtù.
Go, thought, on golden wings,
Go, alight on the cliffs, on the hills,
Where waft the warm and gentle
Sweet breezes of our native land.
Greet thou Jordan's banks,
The fallen towers of Zion... Oh, my fatherland, so beautiful and lost!
Oh, remembrance so dear and fatal!
Harp of gold of prophet bards,
Why hangst thou silent from the willow?
Rekindle memories in our breast,
Speak to us of the time that was.
O, like Solomon to the fates,
Draw out a sound of harsh lamentation;
O may the Lord inspire in thee an accord
Which might infuse our suffering with virtù.
