Original Italian version

You’ll walk on the bottom of the sea
not to fall down not to talk
just to remember on the bottom of the sea
when you didn't breathe
like a trembling amphibian tadpole
that will skip about on the earth
you were a little foetus dreaming of the dark
of mummy’s placenta

You’ll walk on the bottom of the sea
not to fall down not to think
not to remember on the bottom of the sea
how it is difficult to breathe
for a child who is always a son
and he will walk on the earth
the thought flies away from its bed
into mummy’s placenta

You’ll walk on the bottom of the sea
greeting the starfish
they are cousins on the bottom of the sea
of the ones that we use to look
in those dark sky nights
stars air will blow
your thought their son
into mummy’s placenta

In those dark sky nights
stars air will blow
your thought their son
into mummy’s placenta
