A le curte: te vòi sbrigà d'Aggnesa <br />Senza er risico tuo? Be', tu pprocura <br />D'ammazzalla vicino a quarche chiesa: <br />Poi scappa drento, e nun avé ppavura. <br /> <br />In zarvo che tu ssei dopo l'impresa, <br />Freghete del mandato de cattura; <br />Ché a chi tte facci l'ombra de l'offesa <br />Una bona scomunnica è ssicura. <br /> <br />Lassa fà: staccheranno la licenza: <br />Ma ppe la grolia der timor de Dio, <br />C'è sempre quarche pprete che ce penza. <br /> <br />Tu nun ze' un borzarolo né un giudìo, <br />Ma un cristiano c'ha perzo la pacenza: <br />Dunque, tu mena, curri in chiesa, e addio. <br /> <br /> <br />English <br /> <br />In short: do you want to get rid of Agnes <br />Without any risk? What you have to do <br />Is to kill her near a church: <br />Then run inside, and don't worry [1] . <br /> <br />Once you're safe after the action, <br />Don't care about the warrant of arrest; <br />Because anyone trying to harm you <br />Would surely be excommunicated. <br /> <br />Let them do: they'll issue the warrant: <br />But for the glory of the fear of God <br />There's always a priest who will care. <br /> <br />You're not a thief nor a jew [2] , <br />You're a man [3] who lost his temper: <br />So, strike and run inside: that's it.<br /><br />Giuseppe Gioacchino Belli<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/er-rifuggio-the-refuge/
