Song for Julian

Germano Bonaveri
Language: English


Germano Bonaveri


Don't walk through that secret door,
or soon you will cry.
It's not allowed to have the key
whoever touches it dies

How much is the truth worth?
You will pay for pity
A black swan
Flies already
over the empty city.

Julian,
we all know who they are
the guilty of your imprisonment
Julian, it's just out of cowardice:
we have all been accomplices.

Nobody knows,
nobody has to know
What happens
in the rooms
more secret
than the deep state.

Who can dare not,
pretends not to see.
We will invoke censorship
to silence those voices
who ask
what a lie is
and what reality.

and what reality

Julian, your fight for our freedom
now knows its killer.
Julian, it's just out of cowardice
each was an accomplice.

do not hope to change the sentence:
we made our decision.
And if anyone still opposes:
great is our prison.

Don't go through that secret door,
or soon you will cry.
Don't cross the line
whoever touches it dies

How much is the truth worth
outside the prison walls?
A black swan
flies already
but you don't give a damn
