Partirono all’alba
in crociata i bambini
Le facce gelate, chi li troverà?
Partirono in fila,
Sepolti di neve
I soli scampati alle bombe
ed ai soldati
Volevan fuggire dagli occhi la guerra,
volevan fuggirla per cielo e per terra
un piccolo capo, la pena nel cuore,
provava a guidarli
e la strada
non sapeva trovare.
Una bambina di undici,
ad una di quattro, come una mamma
portava per mano
ed un piccolo musico, col suo tamburo,
batteva sordo, al timore
di farsi trovare
E poi c’era un cane, ma morto di fame
che per compassione nessuno ammazzò,
e si faceva scuola
tutti alla pari
sillabavan maestri e scolari
P. A. C. E
C’era Fede e Speranza
ma né pane, né carne
non chiamate ladro chi deve rubare,
per dare alle bocche, di cosa mangiare
farina ci vuole
e non solo bontà
Si persero in tondo, nel freddo di neve
nessuno più vivi li poté trovare,
soltanto il cielo, li vede vagare
nel cerchio
dei senza meta
dei senza patria
E cercano insieme una terra di pace
non come quella che hanno lasciato,
senza fuoco e rovina di Colosseo
ed immenso dietro di loro…
diventa il corteo
Il cane nel bosco
fu trovato una sera
al collo portava un cartello con scritto:
qualcuno ci aiuti, abbiam perso la strada
seguite il cane,
e vi prego,
non gli sparate
La scritta infantile, trovò un contadino
ma non la mano che la tracciò
un anno è passato, e nessuno è venuto
il cane soltanto è restato
a morire di fame
Il cane soltanto è restato
e si muore di fame
