Temp d'estate a Venezia [Summertime in Venice] [English translation]

I dream of the summertime—

of Venice and the summertime.

I see the cafes, the sunlit days

with you, my love.

The antique shop where we'd stop

for the souvenir—

the bridge, the boats below,

the blue above.

A romantic dream—

Venice and the splendid sun.

I will carry away the far-off echo

of a thousand songs.

I will remember

this sleeping lagoon

that speaks to my heart only of love,

forever of love.

I dream all the winter long

of mandolins that played our song.

The dream is so real

I almost feel your lips on mine.

And though I know we have to be

an ocean apart,

there's Venice and you,

and summertime, deep in my heart.

Ciao.
