Tu Italia [English translation]

You'd enter the sea, you're made for this,

But you move in a relaxed manner like the countryside

With the squares in your beautiful girl's eyes.

The memory is not enough for me, I also want to come back

And to spin you round on the sides like those hairpin bends

Where your face disappears and then suddenly appears.

You, Italy

And I'm here for you

Italy

Like all the working hands that I

Put on the love, a warm field that is you,

And I tear this heart for you, my flower,

The way destiny wants it, without asking us.

But we'll stick together, face to face, and then

It's what will make us close like a rose.

You, Italy

And I'm here for you

Italy

And I watch you from a train and a ship and you are

Lying there and (you are) a peninsula in the sea that is

A flapping blanket and we make it sway

Like the one at night and you're that one,

Like your noon, as beautiful as if

It were the most naked sun, the only sun of mine.

You, Italy

And I'm here for you

Italy

You, Italy

And I'm here for you

Italy
