Camminando di Notte
Kina Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Camminando di notte sulle impronte dei giganti
Stai cercando il tuo sentiero
É bello sperare che ce ne siano ancora
Lui cammina nelle strade senza fermarsi

Non ha più un posto per fermarsi
Troppe notti nel vento, dormire nelle auto
I giorni e lo sporco
Lo sguardo perso in avanti quando la vita era piana

Un altro vecchio muore solo
Ha lavorato e ha servito
Ora é solo un vecchio senza forze e senza memoria
(i vestiti fuori moda si gettano via)

Sei forte tu che sai dire forse
Che loro che sanno dire solo "io so"
La vita continua
Sui binari che non ci sono
Con amici che se ne vanno
E i sogni si consumano piano
Resta la strada
Asfalto nero e voglia di andare lontano

Questa casa che brucia




Sta per crollare
Noi volevamo costruirla ancora

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Kina's song "Camminando di Notte" reflect the struggle of finding one's own path in life while facing obstacles and observing the realities of the world. The first verse talks about walking at night on the footsteps of giants, an imagery that suggests following the example of those who have gone before us. The singer is searching for their own path, hoping that there are still options available. Meanwhile, a person he observes has lost all places to stop, having spent too many nights in the wind and sleeping in cars. The days and dirt have taken a toll, and the person is moving forward without looking back to when life was easier.


The second verse tells the story of an old man who has died alone. He had worked and served his purpose, but now he is a forgotten member of society. His outdated clothes are thrown away, and his life seems to have no value. The chorus extols the virtue of having strength in the midst of uncertainty; the singer is stronger than those who claim to have absolute knowledge of life. Life moves on, with friends leaving and dreams slowly dissolving, but the road remains. It is a metaphor for life that may not always be easy, but there is always room to keep moving forward, pursuing goals and visions that keep us going.

Camminando di notte sulle impronte dei giganti
Walking at night on the footprints of giants


Stai cercando il tuo sentiero
You are searching for your path


É bello sperare che ce ne siano ancora
It is nice to hope that there are still some left


Lui cammina nelle strade senza fermarsi
He walks on the streets without stopping


Non ha più un posto per fermarsi
He doesn't have a place to stop anymore


Troppe notti nel vento, dormire nelle auto
Too many nights in the wind, sleeping in cars


I giorni e lo sporco
The days and the dirt


Lo sguardo perso in avanti quando la vita era piana
The gaze lost ahead when life was smooth


Un altro vecchio muore solo
Another old man dies alone


Ha lavorato e ha servito
He worked and he served


Ora é solo un vecchio senza forze e senza memoria
Now he's just an old man without strength and memory


(i vestiti fuori moda si gettano via)
(the out-of-fashion clothes are thrown away)


Sei forte tu che sai dire forse
You are strong because you can say maybe


Che loro che sanno dire solo "io so"
Unlike those who only know how to say "I know"


La vita continua
Life goes on


Sui binari che non ci sono
On the tracks that don't exist


Con amici che se ne vanno
With friends who leave


E i sogni si consumano piano
And dreams fade away slowly


Resta la strada
The road remains


Asfalto nero e voglia di andare lontano
Black asphalt and the desire to go far


Questa casa che brucia
This burning house


Sta per crollare
Is about to collapse


Noi volevamo costruirla ancora
We wanted to build it again
