Addio Amore
Savina Yannatou Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Nebbi′ a la valle e nebbi' a la muntagne,
Ne la campagne nen ce sta nesciune.

Addije, addije amore
Casch′ e se coje
La live e casch' a l'albere li foje.

Casche la live e casche la ginestre,
Casche la live e li frunne ginestre.

Addije, addije amore




Casch′ e se coje
La live e casch′ a l'albere li foje.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Savina Yannatou's "Addio Amore" describe a bleak and desolate landscape, where mist covers both the valley and the mountain. There seems to be nobody in the countryside, as if the world itself has lost all its life and the only thing left is the wind that rustles the leaves of the trees. The singer then says goodbye to her love, as if acknowledging that the time has come to part ways. The wind continues to blow, causing the leaves and branches to fall from the trees.


The repetition of the line "Casche e se coje" (It falls and is collected) after every other line adds to the haunting quality of the song, emphasizing the imagery of decay and decline. The song creates a mood of finality and resignation, as if the characters in the story have accepted that the world around them is dying.


Overall, "Addio Amore" is a haunting and melancholy song that reflects on the transience of love and the inevitability of change and decay.
