Ancora Importante
Daniele Silvestri Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
come di un incidente ma
io ero presente
E dopo un po' è logico
non si sentì più niente
ma è ancora importante
è ancora importante
si trova nel fondo degli occhi
di chi hai davanti
mille discorsi teorici valgono meno
di pochi secondi
Mille discorsi teorici valgono meno
di pochi secondi
No es cierto que los caminos
se cierran al caminante
que quien camina adelante
va inventando su destino
envejece bien el vino cultivado con esmero
y un corazòn verdadero
conserva lo màs valioso
defiende lo màs hermoso de su verso clandestino
No es cierto que no hay futuro
porque el que siembra esperanza
cosecha siempre enseñanza
para derribar los muros.
hasta en los tiempos màs duros
el canto nos acompaña
por eso nunca se empaña la voz del cantor sincero
pues su verso justiciero es un batir de campanas.
No es cierto que no haya gente
que mantenga un compromiso
y piense sin pedir permiso
y actùe en forma decente
no triunfa el indiferente
no se impone el solitario
sòlo quien es solidario construye mundos posibles
ninguno es imprescindible
todos somos necesarios.
In "Ancora Importante," Daniele Silvestri sings about the importance of real, human connection in a world that often values theory and intellect over emotion and intuition. He begins by recounting an incident that, though it was later dismissed as an accident, he witnessed firsthand. Despite the passing of time, Silvestri asserts that the event remains important, underscoring his belief that sometimes the things that matter most cannot be explained through words or reasoning. Rather, they are found in the depths of another person's eyes, communicated through a silence that can often speak louder than any argument or debate. In the second stanza, Silvestri challenges common misconceptions about the limitations of individual agency, expressing a belief in the power of hope and collaboration to create a better future. He argues that the most valuable things in life - such as truly "cultivated" wine and "a true heart" - can never be taken away, and that it is our duty to defend the beauty and truth we find in our own unique experiences. He concludes with a rallying cry to reject indifference and embrace a spirit of solidarity, recognizing that each and every one of us has a role to play in shaping the world we live in.
Overall, "Ancora Importante" serves as a reminder of the enduring significance of empathy and community in a society that often values individualism and isolation. Through his lyrics, Silvestri encourages listeners to look beyond the surface level of things and connect with those around them on a deeper, more meaningful level.
