L'albero ed io
I and my tree
When my last day on earth will come, after my last glance at the world
I do not want any stone on my grave, for it too heavy would seem to me
Look for a tree, a young and strong tree, that's the right stone for my grave,
I want to lie even after my death under that sky people say it's of God.And in winter, during the long rest, under my tree I will lie still alive
As if I were sleeping I'll trustfully wait till I'll awake one day or another
And in spring we'll hear thousands of voices and that will be our rebirth
And I willl raise my fingers like boughs to that sky so full of mystery.
And in summer, if the wind does accept what ev'ry sprout is inviting to do
We'll wave leaves like flags in the air and we shall sing songs of life
And so, together, we'll live forever, but here on Earth, I and my tree
Always standing out in summer and winter against that sky people say it's of God.
Fabrizio De André (Genova, 18 febbraio 1940 – 27 gennaio 1999) è stato uno dei cantautori italiani più influenti e originali del XX secolo. Figlio di una famiglia borghese genovese, De André si avvicinò alla musica fin da giovane, influenzato da artisti come Brassens e il jazz. Dopo un periodo di studio universitario interrotto, iniziò a esibirsi nei locali genovesi insieme ad amici come Tenco e Bindi. Il suo primo album, "La canzone del sole", uscì nel 1967 e segnò l'inizio di una carriera straordinaria. De André si distinse per la sua poetica complessa e raffinata, spesso incentrata su temi sociali e politici, ma anche sulla vita quotidiana e le emozioni umane. Le sue canzoni sono caratterizzate da melodie originali e arrangiamenti innovativi, che spaziano dal folk al rock progressivo. Tra i suoi album più importanti ricordiamo "Il pescatore", "La terra dei cachi", "Non ho paura" e "Anime morte". De André ha collaborato con numerosi artisti, tra cui Paolo Conte, Francesco De Gregori e Carmen Consoli. La sua musica ha influenzato generazioni di cantautori italiani e continua ad essere apprezzata per la sua profondità e originalità. Alcuni dei suoi brani più rappresentativi sono: "La canzone del sole", "Il pescatore", "Sotto il segno di Marte", "Don Chisciotte".
