(Original Italian version)
Una cascata
di ricordi
dolci amari,
prigionia
di emozioni
sopite.
Una melodia,
un'epifania
di tempi repressi,
e il passato risorge
dalla cenere.
Una lacrima,
una promessa di libertà
per lo spirito,
testimone di sofferenze
e fiduce tradite.
Ma pietrificato
dalla Medusa
delle promesse spezzate,
attendo silente
il profondo pianto
purificatore.

(Translated English version)
A waterfall
of bittersweet
memories,
restraint
of slumbering
emotions.
A melody,
an epiphany
of stifled times,
and the past resurrects
from ashes.
A tear,
a promise of freedom
for the spirit,
witness of sorrows
and betrayed trust.
But petrified
by Medusa
of broken promises,
I await silently
the deep purifying
cry.
