Lettera a Pinocchio [English translation]

Dearest Pinocchio

friend from my happiest days

of all of my secrets

that I've entrusted to you

Dearest Pinocchio

la-la-la-la-la

remember when I was little

la-la-la-la-la

in my little white bed

la-la-la-la-la-la

I paged through you

vai-ia

I talked to you

vai-ia

I dreamed of you

vai-ia-ti-pu-ci-pu

Where are you? I want to see you

I want to know about your world

Perhaps daddy, Geppetto

is with you?

Where are the cat who deceived you,

the good cricket that spoke to you,

and the Blue Fairy?

Where?

Who knows?

Dearest Pinocchio

Sentimental little one, don't you think?

friend from my happiest days

Remember Toyland?

with all of my secrets

And the puppet master1, how frightening!

remain now

in my heart

as you were then

Dearest Pinocchio
