Sailor Song
music and lyrics by
Riccardo Scivales

Sailor, would you like
to reach the Rising Sun
Have you never tried to capture,
On your sail, the joy of seagulls’ song?

Wandering across the sea,
Looking for my identity,
I’m following the wake of Rising Sun…

Strange reflexes in the dark,
Charming echoes on the air
Have drawn my ship in an island
out of time.

Ooh... and here I am, waiting for myself,
And the sand is slowly sliding
through my fingers...

Nota: Il viaggio di questo marinaio
verso un’isola “fuori del tempo”
simboleggia una ricerca interiore
e la costante aspirazione dell’Uomo
verso qualcosa che forse egli
non raggiungerà mai
(ma che dà comunque un senso alla sua vita).
