Un Attimo Di Te Lyrics in English by Matteo Bocelli, Sebastian Yatra
Gratitudine means 'gratitude'. It's a beautiful word that's easy for English speakers to recognize.
What makes it so special in this song is the context. Instead of expressing sadness or regret over a past relationship, the singer says, "Ho solo gratitudine per te" (I only have gratitude for you), showing a deep appreciation for the positive impact the person had on his life. It’s a wonderfully mature and poetic way to look back on love.
Saying goodbye hurts, but this track takes a surprisingly graceful look at a breakup. Matteo Bocelli and Sebastián Yatra team up to sing about letting someone walk away after all the fighting is done. When the song opens with "Ora vai, senza di me / Non è più tempo di discutere" (Now go, without me / It's no longer time to argue), it skips the messy drama and jumps straight to acceptance. The singer admits his own flaws ("ho i miei limiti" / I have my limits) while realizing just how empty the room feels without their breathing nearby ("Quanto manca il tuo respiro intorno a me" / How much I miss your breath around me).
What makes the song special is that there is zero bitterness here. Instead of throwing blame, the lyrics say "Ho solo gratitudine per te" (I only have gratitude for you) and "La vita accade e non puoi scegliere" (Life happens and you can't choose). Even though they are apart and the other person has no idea they are being remembered ("Ti penso ancora e non lo sai" / I still think of you and you don't know it), a lingering smile stays behind like a gift ("Ho trovato un tuo sorriso dentro me / È il tuo dono più prezioso" / I found a smile of yours inside me / It's your most precious gift). It turns a painful loss into a quiet, thankful memory.
