Let me sing
With a guitar in the hand
Let me sing
I am an Italian.
Hello, Italy, the spaghetti "al dente"
And a partisan as a president
With the car radio always from the right hand
And a canary on the window.
Hello, Italy, with your artists,
With too many America on the manifestos,
With the songs, with love,
With the heart
With women who become less nuns.
Hello, Italy,
Hello, Maria,
With the eyes full of sadness
Hello, God,
You know that I am also here.
Let me sing
One song slowly slowly
Let me sing
Because I am proud that
I am an Italian,
A real Italian.
Hello, Italy which is never scared.
And with a menthol cream,
With striped suits on the blu
And with repeats on Saturdays on TV.
Hello, Italy, with a strong coffee
New socks in the first drawer
With the flag at a dry-cledry-cleaner's
And with the 600 in a repair service.
Hello, Italy,
Hello, Maria,
With the eyes full of sadness
Hello, God,
You know that I am also here.
Let me sing
One song slowly slowly,
Let me sing
Because I am proud that
I am an Italian,
A real Italian.
Let me sing
One song slowly slowly,
Let me sing
Because I am proud that
I am an Italian,
A real Italian.
