Per chi non fraintenda
narra la leggenda
di quella gitana
che pregò la luna
bianca ed alta nel ciel
mentre sorrideva
lei la supplicava
«fa che torni da me»
«tu riavrai quell'uomo
pelle scura
con il suo perdono
donna impura
però in cambio voglio
che il tuo primo figlio
venga a stare con me»
chi suo figlio immola
per non stare sola
non è degna di un re
Luna adesso sei madre
ma chi fece di te
una donna non c'è
dimmi luna d'argento
come lo cullerai
se le braccia non hai
figlio della luna
Nacque a primavera
un bambino
da quel padre scuro
come il fumo
con la pelle chiara
gli occhi di laguna
come un figlio di luna
«questo è un tradimento
lui non è mio figlio
ed io no, non lo voglio»
Luna adesso sei madre
ma chi fece di te
una donna non c'è
dimmi luna d'argento
come lo cullerai
se le braccia non hai
figlio della luna
II gitano folle
di dolore
colto proprio al centro
dell'onore
l'afferrò gridando
la baciò piangendo
poi la lama affondò
corse sopra al monte
col bambino in braccio
e lì lo abbandonò
Luna adesso sei madre
ma chi fece di te
una donna non c'è
dimmi luna d'argento
come lo cullerai
se le braccia non hai
figlio della luna
Se la luna piena
poi diviene
è perché il bambino
dorme bene
ma se sta piangendo
lei se lo trastulla
cala e poi si fa culla
ma se sta piangendo
lei se lo trastulla
cala e poi si fa culla
