Il mare calmissimo [English translation]

To defend myself

by avoiding the places that you will frequent.

To hide you

in my deep thoughts.

What wind is it,

the one that brought you,

that awoke me?

To deceive myself

by disregarding that faintest ache.

To convince myself

that, after all, one does not die.

What love is it,

the one that I conquered,

that I breathed?

This calmest sea inside me

I crossed it with you,

the infinity and you,

the earth of my days,

oh, oh, of my days

which will never end.

But this azure in half

oh, oh it's black and doesn't know

how much I will miss you.

To confound myself

among the people when you know that it doesn't console.

To think of you as mine

and not to be afraid.

What wind is it,

the one that brought you,

that awoke me?

This calmest sea inside me

I crossed it with you,

the infinity and you,

the earth of my days,

oh, oh, of my days

which will never end.

But this azure in half

oh, oh it's black and doesn't know

how much I will miss you,

oh, I will miss you.
