Armate solo dei loro occhi

ARMED ONLY WITH THEIR EYES

Hiding their dignity under the veil,
armed only with their eyes,
face the fear of their executioners,
shored with barrels, polished for the party,
and with hearts, thirsty for cowardice.

Nascondendo la loro dignità sotto il velo,
armate solo dei loro occhi,
fronteggiano la paura dei loro carnefici,
puntellata da canne lucidate per la festa,
e cuori assetati di vigliaccheria.
