Nel blu dipinto di blu (Volare)

Penso che un sogno così
non ritorni mai più,
mi dipingevo le mani
e la faccia di blu,
poi d'improvviso venivo
dal vento rapito,
e incominciavo a volare
nel cielo infinito.

Volare ho ho
cantare ho ho hoho,
nel blu dipinto di blu,
felice di stare lassù,
e volavo, volavo
felice, più in alto del sole
ed ancora più su,
mentre il mondo pian piano
spariva lontano laggiù,
una musica dolce suonava
soltanto per me.

Volare ho ho
cantare ho ho hoho
nel blu dipinto di blu
felice di stare lassù.

Ma tutti i sogni
nell'alba svaniscon perchè,
quando tramonta la luna
li porta con se,
ma io continuo a sognare
negli occhi tuoi belli,
che sono blu come un cielo
trapunto di stelle.

Volare ho ho
cantare ho ho hoho,
nel blu degli occhi tuoi blu,
felice di stare quaggiù,
e continuo a volare felice
più in alto del sole
ed ancora più su,
mentre il mondo
pian piano scompare
negli occhi tuoi blu,
la tua voce è una musica
dolce che suona per me.

Volare ho ho
cantare ho ho hoho
nel blu degli occhi tuoi blu,
felice di stare quaggiù,
nel blu degli occhi tuoi blu,
felice di stare quaggiù
con te...

English translation

Flying

Never a good dream like this one
will come back anew
fully I painted my face
and my hands both in blue
all of a sudden the wind came
and snatched me away
and I then started to fly
in an infinite blue sky of gay

I’m winging, oh oh
I’m singing, oh oh oh oh
In blue and painted all blue
and happy of being there too
I was flying, was flying
so happy as high as the sun is
and much higher away
while the whole world
kept on bit by bit fading
at distance yon lay
and a music so sweet kept on sounding
just only for me

I’m winging, oh oh
I’m singing, oh oh oh oh
In blue and painted all blue
and happy of being there too

But all the night dreaming
the morning blows over erelong
cause when it’s setting
the moon always ports it along
But I continue to dream on
your beautiful eyes all day
that are as blue as the sky
full of stars all the way

I’m winging, oh oh
I’m singing, oh oh oh oh
In blue and painted all blue
and happy of being there too
And I keep on still flying so happy
as high as the sun is
and much higher away
while the whole world
is discolouring in
your blue eyes to grey
your voice is music that’s
sweetly keeps sounding for me

I’m winging, oh oh
I’m singing, oh oh oh oh
In blue, your eyes' deepest blue
and happy of being here too
