Everest
Leano Morelli Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Anche un sogno può lasciare
Qualche cosa dentro te
E io ho sognato di salire
In cima all'Everest

Tentai prima io da solo
Per la mia stupida vanità
Ma scivolavo e ricadevo

Giù dell'Everest
Giù dell'Everest

Everest
Everest
Everest
Com'è alto l'Everest

Everest
Everest
Everest
Com'è alto l'Everest

Tanta gente mi guardava
E mi chiedeva: "Ci vuoi con te?"
Ma io volevo arrivar da solo
In cima all'Everest

E con le unghie nella neve
Mi arrampicavo per un po'
Ma poi sfinito ricadevo
Giù dell'Everest
Giù dell'Everest

Everest
Everest
Everest
Com'è alto l'Everest

Everest
Everest
Everest
Com'è alto l'Everest

Stavo ormai per rinunciare
E poi qualcuno mi chiamò
E ridisse ancora: "Se lo vuoi
Ci siamo anche noi"

Con le funi ci legammo
Uno all'altro e fu così
Che poco dopo eravamo gli uomini
Più in alto del mondo
Più in alto del mondo

Everest
Everest
Everest
Com'è alto l'Everest

Everest
Everest
Everest
Com'è alto l'Everest

Everest
Everest
Everest
Com'è alto l'Everest

Everest
Everest

Everest
Com'è alto l'Everest

Overall Meaning

The song "Everest" by Leano Morelli is a reflection on the human spirit's determination to achieve its goals, despite the many obstacles that may stand in the way. The lyrics demonstrate how a dream can leave something within a person, and the desire to climb to the top of Mount Everest brought about such an experience to the singer. He initially tried to climb it on his own, driven by his vanity. Still, he repeatedly failed and slid down the mountain; however, he refused to give up and continued his quest to conquer Everest.

When people began to take notice of his attempts, they offered to join him on the climb, but the singer chose to ascend by himself. He continued to climb, clutching onto the snow with his fingernails, and finally, when he was about to give up, someone called out to him and told him that they were there for him. Together, they tied themselves with ropes and climbed the mountain, eventually reaching the summit.

The song is not just about physical strength and endurance but also about the importance of having a support system when self-belief alone is not enough to achieve goals. The metaphorical journey up Everest represents overcoming challenges, and the journey upward is difficult, but it is not impossible with the right support along the way.

Anche un sogno può lasciare
Even a dream can leave something inside of you

Qualche cosa dentro te
Something inside of you

E io ho sognato di salire
And I dreamed of climbing

In cima all'Everest
To the top of Everest

Tentai prima io da solo
I tried alone at first

Per la mia stupida vanità
Because of my stupid vanity

Ma scivolavo e ricadevo
But I slipped and fell

Giù dell'Everest
Down the Everest

Tanta gente mi guardava
Many people were watching me

E mi chiedeva: "Ci vuoi con te?"
And they asked me: "Do you want us with you?"

Ma io volevo arrivar da solo
But I wanted to arrive alone
