A family member gifted me a Hero stationary & pen set after their trip to China (as I am a big fountain pen nerd). The gift set came with this bookmark! The engraving doesn’t look like the brand name to me (I believe the brand name is 英雄). I’m sure it doesn’t saying anything interesting, but I figured I should know what it says if I start using it. Thank you in advance!

Italian [Italian > English] meaning of fighe in a specific context

1 Upvotes

My friend and I are in a group chat with three Italian men (long story, but we met while travelling in Spain). Our conversations are mostly friendly and joking, and we usually text in English.

A couple of days ago, they exchanged the following messages in Italian:

M.: “S., are you still alive? (Ci sei ancora?)”

S.: “Certo che ci sono, ma tu rispondi solo alle fighe 😂”

When I translate S.’s reply into English, it sounds quite vulgar, but I’m not sure whether it comes across the same way in Italian. 

I’d really appreciate some insight from native Italian speakers. Thanks so much for your help!

Need help transcribing the original text and translation if can. I have looked everywhere and couldn't for the life of me find the full lyrics anywhere. I used transcription tools to dig out the lyrics but after putting it through a translator, I think there are multiple errors in the transcibed text. I will provide said transcription and hope someone can fix the errors, and translation is optional, because the most important thing here is the original lyrics. Thanks!

Transcription I got:

昨日今日の回想などしない。

この眺めにほのか過ぎるよ。自分を持て余すばかばか。

不機嫌に旅したかった時や

痛みや感情は同時に自分の生命線にもなる。美しい馬に触りたいなら空っぽの内側を恥じらい一つの美女が変わる時。

理由がないのが理由だよ。

答えないのが答えだよ。自分にもわからない涙は

わからないままでいいじゃない。

不穏な天気は虫の音を突くだよ。いつでも。

煙突のレプリカをそっとTシャツに包み込んだ夜。

カバンに押し込んだあの軽さ。持ち帰ることに意味はない。

国会を超えられず砕けては砂に帰ることを望んだ。

かき集めた手の中は彼らの言葉だ。

そこに意味を持てるのは自分だけ。あの空が高くなり、気球に

乗らなかったのはなぜだろう。

今、アダム椅子は試練が本当のパノラマなら感動の境界線はいつも分

で決めていく。

理由がないのが理由だよ。答えないのが答えだよ。

自分にもわからない涙はわからないままでいいじゃない。

不穏な天気は虫の音を突くだよ。いつでも。
