Rosso Malpelo Lyrics – Anastasio
Singer: Anastasio
Title: Rosso Malpelo
Lo chiamavano Malpelo, il tale di cui vi scrivo
Una credenza popolare gli dava sto appellativo
Era rosso di capelli e in quanto tale cattivo
Un ragazzino dalla chioma di fuoco e lo sguardo schivo
Ed ogni giorno si spezzava la schiena in miniera
Insieme a un’altra schiera
Da mattina a sera nella terra nera
Soltanto grazie alla poca luce fioca della candela
“Finché qui c’è il mio babbo non c’è pericolo”
E il babbo se ne andò sotto il crollo di un cunicolo
E Malpelo scavava, cercava il padre sepolto
Ogni tanto si fermava e si metteva in ascolto
Cercava disperato la voce del suo vecchio
E dicevan fosse il diavolo a parlargli all’orecchio
Perché un rosso è figlio del demonio e vittima del vizio
E non c’è modo di scampare alla calunnia e al pregiudizio
E morto il padre, il figlio sgobba come un animale
Era detto Malpelo e si impegnava ad essere tale
E qualsiasi cosa accadde, a lui la colpa e le legnate
Ma tanto le sue spalle già c’erano abituate
Era orfano di padre, rifiutato dal mondo
Una vita vissuta con l’indice puntato contro
Ma ci aveva fatto il callo, aveva pelle come cuoio
Sono Rosso Malpelo, da ora finché non muoio
“La rena è traditora”, diceva
“Somiglia a tutti gli altri
Che se sei più debole ti pestano la faccia
E se sei più forte, o siete in molti, allora si lascia vincere
Mio padre la batteva sempre
Ed egli non batteva altro che la rena
Perciò lo chiamavano Bestia
E la rena se lo mangiò a tradimento
Perché era più forte di lui”
Un giorno giunse un nuovo ragazzino in miniera
Anche lui sperava in un pezzo di pane la sera
Gli diedero il suo piccone, gli dissero: “Zitto e scava”
Lo chiamavano Ranocchio per il modo in cui arrancava
Malpelo lo notò, se lo prese in protezione
Gli insegnava a campare sotto i colpi del suo bastone
Gli diceva: reagisci, non ti devi far pestare
Quando i colpi arriveranno da chi ti vuole male
Qui c’è una sola regola, tu devi essere scaltro
E per salvare te, devi affondare qualcun altro
Picchia tu più forte o il mondo ti calpesta
Mio padre che era buono, lo chiamavano Bestia
Un giorno Ranocchio cadde, sputò un fiotto di sangue
Divorato dalla tisi, gli tremavano le gambe
Morì in qualche giorno con la madre che piangeva
Il figlio e il pane che portava la sera
E Rosso rimasto solo senza più un rapporto umano
Lo mandavano a morire con una piccozza in mano
Nei vicoli più profondi con soltanto il buio intorno
A nessuno importava se non faceva ritorno
E insieme a tanti altri, morti come in guerra
Alla fine anche Malpelo fu inghiottito dalla terra
E ancora i minatori quando girano in quei posti
Temono il fantasma dai capelli rossi
Così si persero persino le ossa di Malpelo
I ragazzi della cava abbassano la voce
Quando parlano di lui nel sotterraneo
Che hanno paura di vederselo comparire dinanzi
Coi capelli rossi e gli occhiacci grigi

Rosso Malpelo – English Translation
They called him Malpelo, the man who I am writing to you
A popular belief gave him I was appellant
He was red of hair and as such a bad
A boy with a fiery foliage and the shy gaze
And every day he broke his back in the mine
Together with another ranks
From morning to evening in the black land
Only thanks to the little dim light of the candle
“As long as there is my father there is no danger”
And the father went under the collapse of a tunnel
And Malpelo dug, he was looking for his buried father
Every now and then he stopped and listened
He was desperately looking for the voice of his old man
And he said about it was the devil to talk to him in his ear
Because a red is the son of the devil and the victim of vice
And there is no way to escape slander and prejudice
And the father died, his son Sgobba like an animal
He was said Malpelo and committed himself to being such
And whatever happened, the guilt and the wooded to him
But so much the shoulders of him were already used to it
He was an orphan of a father, refused from the world
A life lived with the index pointed against
But he had made the callus, he had leather like leather
I’m red Malpelo, from now until he die
“Rena is traditara,” he said
“Resembles all the others
That if you are weaker they weigh your face
And if you are stronger, or you are many, then you let it win
My father always beat her
And he beat nothing but the Rena
Therefore they called him beast
And the Rena ate it treacherously ate it
Because she was stronger than him ”
One day a new boy came to the mine
He too hoped for a piece of bread in the evening
They gave him his picker, they said to him: “Shut up and dig”
They called him frog for the way he arranged
Malpelo noticed it, if he took it in protection
He taught him to live under the blows of his stick
He said to him: you react, you don’t have to get pounded
When the blows come from those who want you badly
Here there is only one rule, you must be shrewd
And to save you, you have to sink someone else
Beat you stronger or the world tramples on you
My father who was good, they called him beast
One day Ranocchio fell, he spat a stream of blood
Devoured by the pound, his legs trembled
He died in a few days with the mother who cried
The son and bread he brought in the evening
And red remained only without a human relationship more
They sent him to die with a ice ax in his hand
In the deepest alleys with only the darkness around
Nobody cared if he didn’t return
And together with many others, died as in war
In the end, Malpelo was also swallowed by the earth
And still the miners when they turn in those places
They fear the red hair ghost
So even Malpelo’s bones were lost
The boys of the quarry lower the voice
When they talk about him in the bas#ment
Who are afraid of seeing it to appear before
With red hair and gray glasses
