Ho imparato a sognare [English translation]

I learned to dream,

when I wasn't a child,

when I was not even an age

When a school day

felt like a lifetime

and my world ended there 

Between that boring priest 

that gave us a hard time

and the football that run as if by fuel 

There were those unable to dream 

and those who were already dreaming 

I learned to dream

and I started hoping 

that whoever wants something will get it

I learned to dream

when a dream is like a cannon, 

and if you dream 

you kill half of them 

When you start to see

that you're alone in your underwear

when you start to see

that everything is bigger 

There were those unable to dream

and those who were already dreaming

Between a hit I take

and one I give

between a friend I lose 

and a friend I'll have

and if I fall once,

I'll have fallen once 

and I'll rise from the ground 

Now that I've learned how to dream, I won't stop 

I learned to dream 

when you start to see

that every dream

takes you further

riding kites, 

beyond any wall and border

that's where I learned to dream 

When any excuse to play is good

when your whole life is a beautiful song 

There were those unable to dream

and those who were already dreaming 

Between a hit I take

and one I give

between a friend I lose 

and a friend I'll have

and if I fall once,

I'll have fallen once 

and I'll rise from the ground

Now that I've learned how to dream, I won't stop
