Original text with translation

Cassius Clay

Gianni Morandi

Original text

Dentro una palestra tutti i sabati alle sei

con la mamma fuori ad aspettare sui gradini

c’era un ragazzino si chiamava cassius clay

era una farfalla coi guantoni e i calzoncini

comincio' cosi' fra il sudore e la speranza

ma lui era gia' un campione fino dalla adolescenza

ed?

passato il tempo sopra i lividi e sul cuore

e quando tira vento se lo vedi camminare

adesso trema trema trema trema ma non per paura

e insieme ama ama ama ama come amava allora

salire sopra quel quadrato e fare a pugni con la vita

perch?

non e' un cazzotto a farti male

o a lasciarti una ferita

mi ricordo il vietnam e lui che non se la sentiva

di sparare a caso senza avere una ragione

guarda cosa fa la gente quel ragazzo non capiva

lui faceva a botte ma soltanto per passione

e poi gli anni 70 con il mondo che cambiava

viva l’uguaglianza come un pazzo lui urlava

con un nuovo nome ali lottava per un sogno

delle sue vittorie non ne aveva piu' bisogno

adesso trema trema trema trema ma non per paura

e a volte lui si mette in guardia e ride come fosse allora

eppure sembra di vederlo ancora

spavaldo e poi spietato davanti all’avversario

e solo con lo sguardo metterlo al tappeto

e adesso trema trema trema trema

ma lui e' sempre un gigante

che ancora lotta a denti stretti lotta

e alla fine vince

contro un nemico senza gambe e braccia

ma che?

molto piu' cattivo

ti rode dentro e non ti guarda in faccia

poi ti cambia anche il sorriso

quando vedo sopra un muro la parola pace

o quando vado a correre ogni sabato alle sei

mi ritorna in mente quella faccia e quella voce

mi ritorna in mente cassius clay

Song translation

Inside a gym every Saturday at six

with mom outside waiting on the steps

there was a little boy named cassius clay

it was a butterfly in boxing gloves and shorts

thus began 'between sweat and hope

but he was already a champion since adolescence

and?

time spent over the bruises and over the heart

and when he blows if you see him walking

now trembles trembles trembles but not for fear

and together he loves loves loves loves as he loved then

rise above that square and fight with life

why?

it's not a punch to hurt you

or to leave you a wound

I remember Vietnam and him not feeling it

to shoot at random without having a reason

look what people do that boy did not understand

he fought but only for passion

and then the 70s with the changing world

long live equality like a madman he screamed

with a new name ali was fighting for a dream

he no longer needed his victories

now trembles trembles trembles but not for fear

and sometimes he warns and laughs like it was then

yet it seems to still see him

arrogant and then ruthless in front of the opponent

and only with the look to knock him out

and now it trembles, trembles, trembles

but he is always a giant

who still fight through clenched teeth

and in the end he wins

against an enemy without legs and arms

but what?

much worse

gnaws at you inside and doesn't look you in the face

then your smile also changes

when I see the word peace on a wall

or when I go running every Saturday at six

I remember that face and that voice

cassius clay comes to mind
