Buon Natale Anche A Te Lyrics in English Elisa
Miracolo translates directly to "miracle". It's a beautiful and evocative word that carries a sense of wonder and hope, especially fitting for a Christmas song.
In the lyrics, Elisa sings, "Ma diventa grande che sembra un miracolo" (But it grows so big it seems like a miracle). She uses this word to describe how something small and perhaps hidden can grow into something profound and extraordinary, much like the magic associated with the holiday season.
"Buon Natale Anche a Te" ("Merry Christmas to You Too") is Elisa's quieter, more honest side of the holidays. Instead of a picture-perfect Christmas, she sings about the small sadnesses people carry through the season: someone rushing to catch a late train before everything closes, a hidden story tucked away like something kept at the bottom of a pocket.
The song doesn't try to fix that sadness, it just sits with it. She still says "Merry Christmas to you too," and compares the moment to the snow of '93, as if even a small gesture, a voice on the phone, can matter when it's all two people have.
By the end, the wish turns inward: she says Merry Christmas to herself too, thinking of a father who isn't there. It's less about celebration and more about holding love and loss in the same breath, and letting neither cancel out the other.
