Notte a sorpresa [English translation]

I take the downtown street

I'm not coming back to you tonight,

for now

A mint between my teeth,

thoughts distant from you,

for now

It is refreshing to enjoy the people,

quietly so

I will breathe

all the air there is

A night of surprise away from home

It takes me and gives me

this great city

as a woman tempts me

and she becomes, here and there,

melancholy,

poetry

and fantasy

A windswept square

I'm happy with myself

because

I live, I am enough, I expend myself

in the world even without you,

for now

The moon smiles among thin clouds

It traces the roads for me

I will breathe

all the air there is

A night of surprise away from home

It takes me and gives me

this great city

as a woman tempts me

and she becomes, here and there,

melancholy,

poetry

and fantasy

Here and there,

melancholy,

poetry

and fantasy ...
