Discover the story of the song > Il pescatore – Fabrizio De André

The song "Il pescatore" tells the story of a fisherman who falls asleep in the shade of the last sun. An assassin approaches him, asking for bread and wine, to which the fisherman complies. The assassin leaves and the fisherman is left with memories of regrets from his past. Later, two police officers approach the fisherman to ask if they had seen an assassin around, but he had already left. Despite this encounter, the fisherman seems to still have a smile on his face.
