Translation of the song La leggenda di Mautoa artist Pooh
La leggenda di Mautoa
The legend of Mautoa
Era solo e la sua storia
He was alone and his story
Alla luna raccontò.
To the moon he told.
L'eco ancora non dormiva
The echo was not sleeping yet
E la voce gli rubò:
And the voice stole from him:
La bagnò nel fiume
He bathed her into the river
Che la rese chiara
Which made it clear
E dal cielo al monte
And from the sky up to the mountain
Limpida risuonò,
Resonated clear,
Limpida risuonò.
Resonated clear.
E sentendo quella voce
And hearing that voice
Dall'eco trasformata
Transformed from the echo
Gli si accese la speranza
Hope enflamed to him
Che lei fosse ritornata;
That she had returned;
Gridò forte Vieni,
He shouted loud Come,
Vieni sentì dire
Come, he heard
Per la prima volta
For the first time
Solo non era più,
He was not alone anymore,
Solo non era più.
He was not alone anymore.
Ogni notte, mille notti
Every night, a thousand nights
Dal monte la chiamò
He called her from the mountain
E di lei solo la voce
And only her voice
Non gli bastava più
Was not enough for him anymore
La cercò lontano
He looked for her far away
Scese fino al mare
He went down to the sea
L'eco senza cuore
The heartless echo
Non gli rispose mai più,
Never answered him anymore,
Non gli rispose mai più.
Never answered him anymore.
