Dicotomìas from Iter by Calgolla
The final track closes the circle with a poetic reflection on the duality of existence. Languages intertwine, opposites challenge and embrace, evoking a message of fragile but stubborn hope. It speaks of the balance between opposites and the eternal human quest for equilibrium. The song offers a subtle but hopeful message about unity, singing of the daily struggle to maintain balance in an unbalanced world, hinting at a fragile but stubborn hope, like a light that endures in the dark.The poem, in Sicilian, by the poet Ignazio Buttitta evokes the common struggle and a poignant solidarity in the face of adversity, while a fragile hope creeps into the twilight soundscape.

Lyrics
el bien
el mal
lo dulce
lo amargo
dicotomías
número dos
soledad
compartida
los opuestos
y las medias tintas
la sabiduría
en los enfrentamientos
la tensión natural
a un equilibrio esperado
el movimiento de asentamiento
de una báscula
búsquedas
redondas
recetas
trabajo
tumbado en el colchón
cómodo
colapso
aventuras en streaming
perpetua
reordena
bisagras
correas
la expectativa
y el juicio
la sonrisa
el grito
el péndulo
sube y baja
en el centro de todo
y para cada uno de los puntos
que definen la trayectoria
ascutami,
parru a tia stasira
e mi pari di parrari o munnu.
ti vogghiu diri
di non lassàrimi sulu
nta sta strata longa
chi non finisci mai
ed havi i jorna curti.
ti vogghiu diri
chi quattr'occhi vidinu megghiu,
chi miliuna d'occhi
vidinu chiù luntanu,
e chi lu pisu spartutu nte spaddi
è diventa leggìu.
ti vogghiu diri
ca si t'appoji a mia
e io m appoju a tia
non putemu cadiri
mancu si lu furturati
nn'assicutanu a vintati.
l'aceddi volanu a sbardu,
cantanu a sbardu,
nu cantu sulu è lamentu
e mori'ntall'aria.
non calari ]'occhì,
ti vogghiu amicu a tavula;
e non è vero mai'
ca si deversu di mia
c'allongu i vrazza
e ti chiamu: frati...

Calgolla was born from an attempt to combine different contemporary sub-genres of rock music with the spoken word, influenced by the beat poetry of the 1960s and the poetry slams.
It is a project that works on the song form, winking and trying to integrate more open musical forms (free-jazz, neue music, math rock). To this end, the songs often feature long outros.
