Victory of the Whale written by Camilla Fascina arranged by Edoardo Cicchinelli
Victory of the Whale – testo (tradotto):
Cannibali e re, siete due grandi mali di questa terra
Vivo in uno stato di paura,
Ciò che mi circonda non è reale
Mi sto mangiando tutti i vostri alberi di Natale
Pieno di rabbia in quest’anarchia
Vi inseguirò nella tempesta,
nessun compromesso dentro a tanto dolore
Prendo controllo in questo luogo senza ritorno
Ad ogni mio passo l’oceano respira un giorno in più
La baleniera è persa nella neve
Mando un SOS al mondo
Potete chiamarmi Moby Dick
Affondo baleniere
C’è un antropologo che piange,
sto infrangendo tutte le sue teorie.
Prendo controllo in questo luogo senza ritorno
Ad ogni mio passo l’oceano respira un giorno in più.
Victory of the Whale Lyrics
Cannibals and kings,
You are a very bad disease
Living in a state of fear
What’s sorrounding me ain’t real
And I’m eating all your Christmas trees
With anger in this anarchy
And I will chase you in the rain
No compromises in this pain
I GAIN CONTROL
IN A PLACE WHERE THERE IS NO RETURN
EACH STEP I TAKE
THE OCEANS BREATHE A BRAND NEW DAY
Whalers in the snow, I’ll send an SOS to the world
You can call me Moby Dick, sinking whalers in the sea
Now there’s a weeping anthropologist
We’re breaking down his theories
I GAIN CONTROL
IN A PLACE WHERE THERE IS NO RETURN
EACH STEP I TAKE
THE OCEANS BREATHE A BRAND NEW DAY

On this day 20 November 1820, a mighty sperm whale bull rammed and sank the American whaler, Essex. Her fateful final voyage made global news, and inspired Herman Melville’s Moby-Dick. Two centuries later, Montegrappa has joined forces with Sea Shepherd to recount an epic sea battle, and highlight mankind’s continued assault on ocean life. Sea Shepherd was founded in 1977 by Captain Paul Watson. Sailing under a rejigged Jolly Roger flag, our partner patrols the oceans with a ‘vigilante’ brand of direct-action activism. For Montegrappa’s collaboration with the Sea Shepherd Global, singer/songwriter Camilla Fascina has dedicated a special composition. The song The Victory of the Whale marks a continuation of her support of Sea Shepherd’s volunteers and their mission to defend, conserve and protect the oceans. Proceeds from all sales proudly support their efforts to fearlessly defend life and diversity in the oceans. A top-tier fountain pen and rollerball are each made in limited editions of 200 hundred pieces to mark the bicentenary of the Essex sinking, and the unsung whale that brought about her demise. #victoryofthewhale #protecttheocean #protecttheplanet #montegrappaitalia #seashepheard #mobydick #hermanmelville
