Le voci di sempre
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Our translations:  FIN
Ed ora 
che tanto siamo stanchi di odiare,
fermiamoci, o fratelli,
al limite del nostro nulla.

Ed ascoltiamo le voci
rinascenti dal nostro profondo,
le voci 
che non mai ci hanno abbandonato,
e che per lunga via
hanno animato di sogni
le notti della nostra avventura 
parlandoci d'infanzie lontane.

Noi 	
abbiamo tentato soffocarle
per potere più liberamente
odiarci.

Ma dal sangue
dell'inutile sacrificio
sono sempre rifiorite
queste voci.

Sostiamo, o fratelli, 
con il nostro peso di dolore;
ed ascoltiamole
nel nostro disperato silenzio.

Sarà come	
se udissimo per la prima volta
le voci di sempre.

E forse 
saremo ancora in tempo
a poter scrivere insieme 
le pagine d'amore
di un ultimo vangelo.
