Song description: "Luglio, agosto, settembre (nero)" ("July, August, Black September") is an anti-war song inspired by the "Munich massacre" in 1972, when Black September, a Palestinian terrorist group, killed 11 Israeli athletes during the XX Summer Olympics Games.
The song begins with an Arab voice ("Poem for peace" from a pirate recording in a Cairo Museum (see below for the translations in English and Italian). The second intro is pure poetry. Demetrio Stratos was able to reach the 7kHz and possessed the gift of triplophonic voice. He seems to be three singers because of his great ability.
Lyrics:

(English trans.)
Intro (Arabs)

My love
With peace, with peace
I have placed Loving flowers at your feet
With peace, with peace
I stopped the seas of blood for you
Forget anger
Forget pain
Forget your weapons
Forget your weapons and come
Come and live
Come and live with me my love
Under a blanket of peace
I want you to sing,
beloved light of my eyes
And your song will be for peace
let the world hear,
my beloved and say (to the world):
Forget anger
Forget pain
Forget your weapons
Forget your weapons and come
And live in peace
Second part (Italian)

Playing with the world,
leaving it in pieces
Children that the sun has reduced to old age.

It's not my fault if your reality
forces me to fight your conspiracy of silence.
Maybe one day we will know what it means
to drown in blood with humanity.

Discoloured people,
almost all the same
my anger reads above the news.
Reads into the past all my pain
sings my people that don't want to die.

When you see the world without problems
seek the essence of all things.
It's not my fault if your reality
forces me to make WAR WITH HUMANITY.
Intro in arabo (traduzione in italiano)

Amato mio
Con la pace, con la pace ho depositato
I fiori dell'amore ai tuoi piedi
Con la pace, con la pace
Ho asciugato mari di sangue per te
Abbandona la rabbia
Abbandona il dolore
Abbandona le armi
Abbandona le armi e vieni
Vieni e viviamo
Vieni e viviamo o mio amato
Sotto una coperta di pace
Voglio che canti,
cara luce dei miei occhi
E il tuo canto sarà per la pace
Fallo sentire al mondo,
O amato mio e dì (al mondo)
Abbandona la rabbia
Abbandona il dolore
Abbandona le armi
Abbandona le armi e vieni
A vivere in pace.
