Sono contento [English translation]

Because the first time that I saw you

Wasn't anything special

I accompanied you home and until that point, everything was normal

I had borrowed my mothers' car

I needed that day to work

Instead it became a golden occasion

It could be that everything happened so suddenly

So that even I haven't realized

And now when I think of what has happened

I can only thank you, I take a breath and say that...

I'm happy to have you next to me

In the good and the bad, for me it's all still the same

I'm happy because I've had so much

Even if we fight, there's peace after, and I love you

Really, I know, it seems strange but

Every time that I think of us, I'll thank some god

I, who wanted to conquer the entire world

And instead I find myself going shopping again

And I pretend to be tough when you act offensive

Now that there's no longer anything or anyone

I'd like to tell you what I feel

And seeing that a bit of time has passed

And I know that finding you hasn't been easy

I take a breath and I say that...

I'm happy to have you next to me

By night and by day, and every time that I return

I'm happy because I don't regret

The women that I've had and have never loved

Really, I know, it seems strange but

It's like the midday sun that will burn us

It's like the seawater that will later rain

It all seems like another world and I hope that you'll return with me
