Canto
salts me wrong when I have to sing horror!
Horror which
live as I die, fear,
to see me in the meantime and so many moments of infinity
in which silence and screams
are the goals of this song.
What I never saw.
What I've felt and what I feel
will sprout the moment ...

will sprout the moment ...
Estadio Chile (1973)
(Canto, che cattivo sapore hai
Quando devo cantar la paura!’
Paura come quella che vivo,
Come quella che muoio, paura.
Di vedermi fra tanti e tanti
momenti di infinito
in cui il silenzio e il grido
sono i fini di questo canto.
Quello che vedo non l’ho mai visto.
Ciò che ho sentito e che sento
Farà sbocciare il momento.)
(Testo scritto nello stadio di Santiago del Cile poco prima di essere ucciso)
Il riconoscimento dell'assassinio
Quando devo cantar la paura!’
Paura come quella che vivo,
Come quella che muoio, paura.
Di vedermi fra tanti e tanti
momenti di infinito
in cui il silenzio e il grido
sono i fini di questo canto.
Quello che vedo non l’ho mai visto.
Ciò che ho sentito e che sento
Farà sbocciare il momento.)
