volare
Frank Sinatra & Dean Martin & Sammy Davis Jr. Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Volare, oh oh oh oh
E cantare, oh oh oh oh
No wonder my happy heart sings
Your love has given me wings
Penso che un sogno cosi non ritorni mai piu
Mi dipingevo le mani e la faccia di blu
E incominciavo a volare nel cielo infinito.
(On an evening in Roma)
Down each avenue or via, street or strata
You can see'em disappearing two by two
On an evening in Roma
Do they take'em for espresso
Yeah, I guess so
On each lover's arm a girl I wish I knew
On an evening in Roma
Though there's grining and mandolining in sunny Italy
The beginning has just begun when the sun goes down
So please meet me in the plaza near your casa
I am only one and one is much too few.
On an evening in Roma
Don't know what the country's coming to
But in Rome do as the Romans do
Will you on an evening in Roma
On an evening in Roma
Sott'er celo de Roma
On an evening in Roma.

Volare, oh oh
Let us take flight and soar high into the sky
Cantare, oh oh oh oh
And sing joyfully while we do
Let's fly way up to the clouds
Let's escape the chaos of the world below
Away from the maddening crowds
And find peace where we can be alone and happy
We can sing in the glow of a star that I know of
We can bask in the light of love that I have found
Where lovers enjoy peace of mind
Where we can be in love without worry or fear
Let us leave the confusion and all disillusion behind
Let's forget the troubles of the past and move forward
Just like bird of a feather, a rainbow together we'll find
We will stick together, like birds of the same feather, and find happiness together
No wonder my happy heart sings
It's no wonder that I am filled with joy
Your love has given me wings
Your love has given me the strength to conquer anything
Penso che un sogno così non ritorni mai più
I believe that a dream like this will never come back again
Mi dipingi con le mani e la faccia di blu
You paint me with your hands and your blue face
Poi d'improvviso venivo dal vento rapito
Suddenly I was swept away by the wind
E incominciavo a volare nel cielo infinito
And I began to fly through the infinite sky
Nel blu, dipinto di blu
In the blue, painted blue
E che dici di stare lassù
And what do you say about staying up there?
E volavo, volavo felice più in alto del sole ed ancora più su
And I flew, I flew happy, higher than the sun and even higher
Mentre il mondo pian piano spariva lontano laggiù
While the world slowly disappeared far below
Una musica dolce suonava soltanto per me
Only sweet music played for me
Felice di stare lassù
Happy to be up there
Nel blu, dipinto di blu
In the blue, painted blue
