I musicanti accordano il violino,
The musicians tune the violin,
stasera suoneranno sulla luna
tonight they'll play on the moon,
e non importa niente
and it doesn't matter at all
se la gente del caffè
if the people at the café
non capirà la loro anima.
won't understand their soul.
I musicanti non piangono mai.
The musicians never cry.
