11 Settembre

È l'11 settembre
tragedia spaventosa,
strana, spettacolare,
inaudita, obbrobriosa,
che pare programmata
da crudele regia:
telecamere accese
nell'atroce giornata
han ripreso lo schianto
degli aerei sulle torri
proprio dal giusto lato,
con fredda precisione.
Che scena mozzafiato,
tremenda collisione,
fumo nero, urla, fiamme,
quanto dolore c'era;
ah, le povere vittime,
indifese e innocenti,
per loro una preghiera;
le ricordo, angosciato,
in tutto quell'orrore:
sono sempre presenti
nella nostra memoria,
candide, con splendore.

Where have the flowers gone?

Where have all the flowers gone,
long time passing?
Where have all the flowers gone,
long time ago?
Where have all the flowers gone?
Gone to young girls, every one!
When will they ever learn,
when will they ever learn?
Where have all the young girls gone,
long time passing?
Where have all the young girls gone,
long time ago?
Where have all the young girls gone?
Gone to young men, every one!
When will they ever learn,
when will they ever learn?
Where have all the young men gone,
long time passing?
Where have all the young men gone,
long time ago?
Where have all the young men gone?
Gone to soldiers, every one!
When will they ever learn,
when will they ever learn?
And where have all the soldiers gone,
long time passing?
Where have all the soldiers gone,
long time ago?
Where have all the soldiers gone?
Gone to graveyards, every one!
When will they ever learn,
when will they ever learn?
And where have all the graveyards gone,
long time passing?
Where have all the graveyards gone,
long time ago?
Where have all the graveyards gone?
Gone to flowers, every one!
When will they ever learn,
oh when will they ever learn?
Where have all the flowers gone?
Long time passing?
Where have all the flowers gone?
Long time ago?
Where have all the flowers gone?
Young girls picked them, every one.
Oh, when will they ever learn?
Oh, when will they ever learn?
