SIDÙNSIDON
U mæ ninin u mæ
u mæ
lerfe grasse au su
d'amë d'amë
tûmù duçe benignu
de teu muaè
spremmûu 'nta maccaia
de staë de staë
e oua grûmmu de sangue ouëge
e denti de laete
My baby, oh my baby, my baby,
My own baby
His fleshy ruby lips
in the honey sun
Sweet benign tumour
of your mom
Squeezed in this wet,
sultry, sultry summer
And now, a clot of blood, ears
and milk teeth
E i euggi di surdatti chen arraggë
cu'a scciûmma a a bucca cacciuéi de baë
a scurrï a gente cumme selvaggin-a
finch'u sangue sarvaegu nu gh'à smurtau a qué
e doppu u feru in gua i feri d'ä prixún
e 'nte ferie a semensa velenusa d'ä depurtaziún
perchè de nostru da a cianûa a u meü
nu peua ciû cresce ni ærbu ni spica ni figgeü
And the eyes of soldiers, like mad dogs,
who hunted the lambs
with foam at the mouth
and chased people like game
until they quenched
their wild bloodthirst
And after the bars into the throat, the bars of jail,
And in the wounds, the poisonous seed of deportation
So that nothing of us, trees, spikes or children,
May grow any more from the plain to the seashore.
Ciao mæ 'nin l'eredítaë
l'è ascusa
'nte sta çittaë
ch'a brûxa ch'a brûxa
inta seia che chin-a
e in stu gran ciaeu de feugu
pe a teu morte piccin-a.
Goodbye, my baby, our heritage
is hidden
in this city that
is burning, is burning
in the evening drawing near
and in this great fire light
for your little death.
