La sera dei miracoli [English translation]

It's the night of miracles

Someone in the streets of Rome

Destroys a song with the mouth.

It's the night of miracles

Someone in the streets of Rome

Destroys a song with the mouth.

It's the night of the dogs that speak amongst themselves

Of the Moon that is about to fall down

And people run toward the plazas

To see

This night that's so sweet it could be drunk

To be spent with a hundred thousand of people in a stadium

A night so strange and

Deep that also the radio says it

Rather, the radio broadcasts this night

That's so black it makes dirty the sheets

It's the time of miracles that confuses me

It seems like I'm listening to the noise of a boat on the waves

The city is moving and the plazas do it too

And gardens and people in the cafes

Float and then they go away, even without current they'll walk

But this night they fly

Their sails on the houses are a thousand of sheets.

There are also criminals

You don't have to be afraid but

You have to be careful.

Two by two lovers

Untie the sails, like pirates

And in the middle of this sea I'll try to discover what star you are

Because I would get lost if I realised that you aren't here tonight.

It's the night of miracles, be careful

Someone in the streets of Rome

Has written a song.

Far away, a light becomes bigger and bigger

In the night that is about to end

It's the boat that is coming back

To take us to sleep.
