Il signore di Baux - Angelo Branduardi

La casa sua il signore di Baux

L’ha costruita sui sassi…

La casa sua il signore di Baux

L’ha costruita sui sassi…

Passi di mille cavalieri

Segnano i suoi sentieri

Vegliano dall’alto nella notte

Gelidi i suoi pensieri…

La casa sua il signore di Baux

L’ha costruita sui sassi…

Gemono nel sonno i suoi cani

Sognando della caccia

Siede a banchetto la sua dama

Lo sguardo assorto…

Fuoco e calore nelle sue sale

Danze, colori e allegria

Canti e rumori, suoni di risa

Nella tua casa, signore di Baux

La casa sua il signore di Baux

L’ha costruita sui sassi…

E ancora lei rimane là

E guarda passare gli anni…

Voli di uccelli verso il mare

L’ombra dei suoi pensieri

Ha imbiancato le sue sale

Il vento salato…

Fuoco e calore nelle sue sale

Danze, colori, allegria

Canti e rumori, suoni di risa

Nella tua casa, signore di Baux

His house is the lord of Baux

He built it on stones ...

The house of him the lord of Baux

He built it on stones ...

Steps of a thousand knights

They mark its paths

They watch from above in the night

Her thoughts of him are cold ...

The house of him the lord of Baux

He built it on stones ...

His dogs moan in their sleep

Dreaming of hunting

His lady sits at a banquet

The absorbed gaze ...

Fire and heat in its halls

Dances, colors and joy

Songs and noises, sounds of laughter

In your house, lord of Baux

The house of him the lord of Baux

He built it on stones ...

And still she stays there

And she watches the years go by ...

Flights of birds to the sea

The shadow of his thoughts

You have whitewashed its halls

The salty wind ...

Fire and heat in its halls

Dances, colors, joy

Songs and noises, sounds of laughter

In your house, lord of Baux
