Vai, vai bambino vai vedrai, vai

''Go, go child, go, you'll see, go
go, go little one, go you'll see, go
you'll see

where fortune walks
you can't reach there with the heart any more
only with your feet on the moon
oh my child, you'll see
go and you'll see that
a smile 
often hides a great sorrow
go and you'll see 
the madness of mankind

madness

of mankind without rightness, go
madness
of warriors without fear, go
madness
of a child full of life
who, playing at paradise
as a soldier was killed
My child you will see
go and you'll see that a smile
often hides a great sorrow
go and you'll see 
madness
go and you'll see 

the madness of mankind''
