SOGNO DELLA GALLERIA

A dark water is raining over me,
how it's late, we don't never arrive,
a square full of people who look at me,
i'm naked, I feel ashamed, and I run away...
I fall down, got up, and I fall down again,
I feel also the weight of the air upon my head...
I see a reflex, but I am not that person,
My eyes were more clear...
I call a friend, but his shadows run away,
and it's made red, red, red by the light...
There is no air in this gallery,
that passes under my house,
Hidden and undertaken streets, I don't know why
And what do you want from me in this room ???
I search for a street, to stop or to go,
and a woman without proud comes from so far...
I want to run, I want to go away, this is not my house,
I want to run, I want to go away, beyond this gallery...
She is waiting for me and I have to find her,
and If come late, she may hurt herself...
The window with pink glasses,
opens itself on an interior of a church,
An altar is missing, there is neither saints nor prayers,
And is neither winter nor spring...
I search for a street to stop or to go,
Toward the horizont, there is a lot of sky and a lot of flies to start up...
I want to run, I want to go away, this is not my house,
I want to run, I want to go away, beyond this gallery...
She is waiting for me and I have to find her,
and If come late, she may hurt herself...
I search for a street to stop or to go,
Toward the horizont, there is a lot of sky and a lot of flies to start up...
I want to run, I want to go away, this is not my house,
I want to run, I want to go away, beyond this gallery...
She is waiting for me and I have to find her,
and If come late, she may hurt herself...

Why not translate the title?
And "chiamo senza voce" is not translated.

The translator was "Guest on Fri, 01/01/2010 - 00:00", so they aren't reading the comments. Probably the best thing to do would be to submit a new translation, with a properly translated title and proper formatting, to match the original text.
