L’acqua, la insegna la sete.
La terra – gli oceani trascorsi.
Lo slancio – l’angoscia –
La pace – la raccontano le battaglie –
L’amore, i tumulti della memoria –
Gli uccelli, la neve.

Water, is taught by thirst.
Land – by the Ocean passed.
Transport – by throe –
Peace – by it’s battles told –
Love, by Memorial Mold –
Birds, by the snow.
