Volare
Rosario e i Giaguari Lyrics

The Rosario e i Giaguari's song Volare is an Italian classic that speaks of the power of dreams to transport us to a better place. The opening lyrics, "Penso che un sogno così non ritorni mai più" translate to "I think a dream like this will never come back again." The singer of the song reflects on their past, hinting at a time when they had big dreams, but now those dreams seem out of reach. The image of painting one's hands and face blue is a metaphor for the singer's desire for something different or larger than their current life.

However, the singer's daydream is suddenly interrupted by the wind that takes them away and they start to fly into the infinite sky. This transformation represents the power of the imagination to break free of the limits of reality. "Volare, oh, oh / Cantare, oh, oh, oh, oh / Nel blu dipinto di blu / Felice di stare quassù" translates to "Fly, oh, oh / Sing, oh, oh, oh, oh / In the blue painted blue / Happy to be up here." The singer is happy to be up high, away from the constraints of society and the limitations of their life.

As the singer continues to fly, the ground below them fades away and they are left with a beautiful melody that only they can hear. "Mentre il mondo pian piano svaniva lontano laggiù / Una musica dolce suonava soltanto per noi" translates to "As the world slowly disappeared far away, A sweet music played only for us." This moment creates a sense of intimacy between the singer and the music, highlighting the transformative power of music and the imagination.
