Franco Battiato risveglio di primavera

The presence of artillery
In the countries of the south
United in the fight against the foreigner
Under the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies
And the predictable movements
Of the troops in fake battles
br/>The smell of gunpowder
And voices from the Strait of Messina
Occult feelings between us
I fell in love
Following the rhythms of the heart
And I woke up in spring
White nights for the Saracens
Who were of easy virtue
Inns closed to Greeks and Spaniards
In the surroundings of Catania
And the irresistible movements
/>Of the girls' kisses
Seeing flamenco dancing
It was a very sensual experience
Occult feelings between us
I fell in love
Following the rhythms of the heart
And I woke up in the spring
Spring awakening
