Come nasce un amore [English translation]

Perhaps you do not know how a love is born.

Now I want to show you.

I want to show you how a love is born—

perhaps you do not know.

Softly, softly, I will brush against you and our lips will touch—

and close—I will be close to you.

And like a butterfly resting on a flower,

I will caress you.

Softly, softly I will talk to you—softly, softly I will seek you—

and nobody will hear us—and nobody will find us

ever, ever, ever again.

And so, without a sound, a love is born.

Perhaps you do not know.

Softly, softly, I will brush against you and our lips will touch—

and close—I will be close to you.

And like a butterfly resting on a flower,

I will caress you.

Softly, softly I will talk to you—softly, softly I will kiss you—

and nobody will hear us—and nobody will find us

ever, ever, ever again.

And so, without a sound, a love is born.

Perhaps you do not know.
