Un'alenu 'e sole [English translation]

Life needs a hand

to walk with on the paths,

I’m waiting for spring

to smile at trees and sprouts.

But you, a cloud,

you steal from me a breath of sun.

I’m pretending, I sing and laugh,

but an infinite nostalgia

is hidden deep within me

crushing my mirth.

So light, like snow,

it hurts in my heart.

Come, you are welcome,

light, in the life.

I want to feel the presence

of this strength.

Come to me, magical dance

of sea and of sacredness,

come to me with pride

you, wind of happiness

into me, into me

following a breath of sun.

Mysteries of sentiments,

caresses and so much love,

worries of repentance,

anxiety about future

are inside me, inside me

following a breath of sun.

Come, you are welcome,

light, in the life.

I want to feel the presence

of this strength

inside me, inside me

following a breath of sun.
