Lucio Dalla 431943

Select language to translate this lyric

He says he was a handsome man and he came, he came from the sea
He spoke another language, but he knew how to love
And that day he took my mother on a beautiful meadow
The time sweeter before being killed
So she remained alone in the room, the room on the port
With the only dress that got shorter every day
And although she didn't know the name and not even the country
I've been waiting for it as a gift of love since the first month
My mother was turning 16 that day
I sang the tavern verses as a lullaby
And hugging me to her chest that tasted like the sea
She played at being a woman with a baby to swaddle
And maybe it was for fun or maybe out of love
That she wanted to call me our lord< br/>Of his short life it is the biggest memory
It's all in this name that I carry with me
And even now I play cards
And I drink wine for the people of the port
My name is Gesu' Bambino
And still now that I play cards
And I drink wine for the people of the port
My name is Gesu' Bambino
And still now I play cards
And I drink wine for the people of the port
My name is Baby Jesus
