Si fa sera [English translation]

But when it is evening,

we are still here—

the two of us—we alone and the sea.

It is just the two of us

a stone's throw from the sea

when it has ended—

a long day—

and we meet

happier than ever—

than ever—

than ever.

Why do not we see each other

even for an instant all day long?

But when it is evening,

you are here with me—

embracing with me—

on the warm sand—

clasped to me, to me.

It is just the two of us

a stone's throw from the sea

while the moon

rises for us

and we love each other,

happier than ever—

than ever—

than ever.

And we feel that it is worth it

to stay far away.

If when it is evening,

we are still here—

the two of us—we alone and the sea—

the two of us alone with the sea.
