Dall'america

Dear friend Bob and friend Joan
From America you sing
The hopes and the fears
Of those who want a new freedom

We shall overcome, said Joan
But in America who knows
Where have all the flowers gone?
All the flowers this war finished them

And to think that not long ago
We all went to America
Forgetting the sky
Crossing the sea
To seek bread and freedom
Happiness

Dear friend Bob and friend Joan
From America you sing
The hopes and the fears
Of those who want a new freedom
This voice is a rose that will live
