Gli immigrati – Immigrants

Questa è la poesia degli immigrati,

che dal loro paese sono arrivati.

per colpa delle guerre o della carestia

Sono purtroppo dovuti andar via

Arrivano da noi con barche poco attrezzate

E sono persone che ne sono abituate

loro non sono tutti uguali

sono tutti diversi tutti quanti speciali.

Girano il mondo con il loro cuore

per conoscere anche nuove persone

sono in Italia, in altri paesi

e adesso non devono essere offesi

This is the poetry for the migrants,

who arrived from their countries.

because of wars or famine

Unfortunately, they have had to leave

They come to us with poorly equipped boats

and they are people who are used to it

they are not all the same

they are all different and all as special.

They travel the world with their hearts

to meet new people as well

they are in Italy, in other countries

and now they should not be offended

A person should be known in its entireness

so we discover that there is something profound about them

in this great world of humans.

There are many differences

Some speak English or French

every language of every different country

but all these differences

they give other qualities to a man or a woman

So I conclude and finally greet

hoping you’d like what you’ve read.

(Beatrice Adamo)
