Original text with translation

Il fannullone

Fabrizio De André

Original text

Senza pretesa di voler strafare

Io dormo al giorno quattordici ore

Anche per questo nel mio rione

Godo la fama di fannullone

Ma non si sdegni la brava gente

Se nella vita non riesco a far niente

Tu vaghi per le strade quasi tutta la notte

Sognando mille favole di gloria e di vendette

Racconti le tue storie a pochi uomini ormai stanchi

Che ridono fissandoti con vuoti sguardi bianchi

Tu reciti una parte fastidiosa alla gente

Facendo della vita una commedia divertente

-Ho anche provato a lavorare

Senza risparmio mi diedi da fare

Ma il sol risultato dell’esperimento

Fu della fame un tragico aumento

Non si risenta la gente per bene

Se non mi adatto a portar le catene

Ti diedero lavoro in un grande ristorante

A lavare gli avanzi della gente elegante

Ma tu dicevi -il cielo è la mia unica fortuna

E l’acqua dei piatti non rispecchia la luna

Tornasti a cantar storie lungo strade di notte

Sfidando il buon umore delle tue scarpe rotte

-Non sono poi quel cagnaccio malvagio

Senza morale straccione e randagio

Che si accontenta di un osso bucato

Con affettuoso disprezzo gettato

Al fannullone sa battere il cuore

Il cane randagio ha trovato il suo amore

Pensasti al matrimonio come al giro di una danza

Amasti la tua donna come un giorno di vacanza

Hai preso la tua casa per rifugio alla tua fiacca

Per un attaccapanni a cui appendere la giacca

E la tua dolce sposa consolò la sua tristezza

Cercando tra la gente chi le offrisse tenerezza

È andata via senza fare rumore

Forse cantando una storia d’amore

La raccontava ad un mondo ormai stanco

Che camminava distratto al suo fianco

Lei tornerà in una notte d’estate

L’applaudiranno le stelle incantate

Rischiareranno dall’alto i lampioni

La strana danza di due fannulloni

La luna avrà dell’argento il colore

Sopra la schiena dei gatti in amore

Song translation

Without pretending to want to overdo it

I sleep fourteen hours a day

Also for this in my ward

I enjoy a reputation as a slacker

But don't be angry with good people

If I can't do anything in life

You wander the streets most of the night

Dreaming of a thousand tales of glory and revenge

You tell your stories to a few tired men

Laughing staring at you with blank white gazes

You play an annoying part to people

Making life a funny comedy

- I also tried to work

Without saving I gave myself to do

But the only result of the experiment

Hunger was a tragic increase

You do not resent the good people

If I don't fit to wear chains

They gave you a job in a big restaurant

To wash the leftovers of elegant people

But you said - heaven is my only luck

And the water in the dishes does not reflect the moon

You went back to singing stories along the streets at night

Challenging the good mood of your broken shoes

-I'm not that evil dog after all

Without bum and stray morals

Who is satisfied with a hole in the bone

With affectionate contempt thrown

The loafer knows how to beat the heart

The stray dog ​​has found his love for him

You thought of the wedding as the turn of a dance

You loved your woman like a vacation day

You have taken your home as a refuge for your sluggard

For a coat rack to hang your jacket on

And your sweet bride consoled her sadness

Searching among the people who would offer her tenderness

She left without making a sound

Perhaps singing a love story

She told it to a world that is now tired

That she walked absent-mindedly beside him

She will be back on a summer night

The enchanted stars will applaud it

They will light up the street lamps from above

The strange dance of two slackers

The moon will have the color of silver

Over the back of cats in love
