Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Testa Tra Le Nuvole, Pt. 1 by Alfa from Italian to English.

So grab my hand

'Cause I feel useless

Close your eyes and let's go far away

Head in the clouds, you know

I took a spin and it feels weird

You were everywhere

And even if we're not talking now

I want you to be happy

I'll protect you from harm

I know that between saying and doing

There's a sea of sharks in the middle

And I've learned, the more you mess up the more you learn

I play 'Loves me, loves me not?'

And it's a flower with an even number of petals

We fell all of a sudden

While we stay lost, not even a warning

Outside, trading looks with strangers, your face all around

But nobody will ever have that smile of yours

No, never, and then

It's another day but I'm like yesterday

They say everything comes back

But you don't see me with you

I've got bags under my eyes

For all those 'maybe's of yours

Have a good night

If I talk about you

My heartbeat speeds up

I should've enjoyed every moment

'Forever' doesn't exist in life

A withered rose is sad

Yet it'll still have so much charm

Whatever happens, everyone goes their own way

But mine's complicated

It's uphill and unpaved

I loved the right person in the wrong way

Or maybe I loved the wrong person in the right way

So grab my hand

'Cause I feel useless

Close your eyes and let's go far away

Head in the clouds

You know, I took a spin and it feels weird

You were everywhere

And even if we're not talking now

I want you to be happy

Even without me

There'll be a day when

You'll forget about the two of us

But I don't want

That day to be right now

squali — sharks

Squali translates to "sharks". It's an unexpected and vivid word to find in a song, especially in a metaphorical context.

In the lyrics, the artist sings, "So che tra il dire e il fare C'è in mezzo un mare di squali" (I know that between saying and doing There's a sea of sharks in between). This powerful imagery conveys the dangers and difficulties that lie between intentions and actions, making it a memorable and thought-provoking word choice.

Testa Tra Le Nuvole, Pt. 1 floats between dreamy hope and honest heartbreak. Alfa and Yanomi invite us to grab their hand and close our eyes, because with a head in the clouds everything feels lighter - even the ache of a love that slipped away. The singer retraces memories where every corner of the world seemed to hold the other person’s face, yet accepts that “forever” is a fragile word. Mistakes are sharks in the sea between saying and doing, but each bite teaches something new.

Despite the sleepless nights, unanswered “maybe”s and uphill roads, the message is surprisingly uplifting: wish the other happiness, keep their smile safe in your mind, and continue walking - even if it’s on a rough, dirt path. Love can be right person + wrong timing (or the opposite), and that’s okay. The important thing is to learn, to cherish the moments you did have, and to stay brave enough to dream with your testa tra le nuvole once again.
