Canto La Vita
Alessandro Safina Lyrics

The lyrics to Alessandro Safina's song, "Canto La Vita" ("I Sing Life"), speak to the nostalgia and joy of moments past. The opening lines, "Quando l'aria sa di primavera / Mi ritornano alla mente / I giorni dell'ingenuità" ("When the air smells like spring / The days of innocence return to my mind"), evoke a sense of wistfulness for a simpler time. Safina describes how he can still feel the melody that touched his soul back then, suggesting that this memory brings him comfort and perhaps even serves as an anchor in difficult times.

As the song progresses, Safina sings about how he sings life - "Canto la vita / Ode infinita / Inno di gioia e verità" ("I sing life / An infinite ode / Hymn of joy and truth"). He describes how he inhales the poetry of the sky and revels in the same enchantment that he did in days past. Through his singing, Safina seems to suggest that life itself is a beautiful thing to be celebrated - a sentiment that is amplified by the uplifting melody of the song.

The final lines of the song, "Canto la vita / Luce segreta / Inno di pace e libertà... libertà" ("I sing life / Secret light / Hymn of peace and freedom... freedom"), hint at a deeper meaning to the song. Safina sings of a "secret light" within life, one that seems to suggest hope and optimism in the face of challenge. The final invocation of "freedom" implies that Safina's singing is not just of life's joys, but also of its inherent potential for growth and liberation.
