O surdato 'nnammurato [English translation]

You are far away from this heart

I fly to you in my mind

I hope and want nothing more

than always keeping you by my side!

Are you sure about this love

As I am sure that I love you

Oh life, oh my life...

Oh heart of this heart...

You were the first love...

and the first and last you will be for me!

How many nights have I not seen you

not felt you in my arms,

not kissed your face,

not held you tight in my arms?!

But, waking from these dreams,

you make me cry for you...

Oh life, oh my life...

Oh heart of this heart...

You were the first love...

and the first and last you will be for me!

Write forever and be happy:

I can only think of you...

One thought comforts me,

you only think of me...

The most beautiful woman in the world,

is never more beautiful than you!

Oh life, oh my life...

Oh heart of this heart...

You were the first love...

and the first and last you will be for me!

Oh life, oh my life...

Oh heart of this heart...

You were the first love...

and the first and last you will be for me!

Oh life, oh my life...

Oh heart of this heart...

You were the first love...

and the first and last you will be for me!
