Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Preghiera (arr. Mercurio) by Andrea Bocelli from Italian to English.
Alla mente confusa di dubbio e di dolore
To the confused mind of doubt and pain
Soccorri, o mio Signore, col raggio della fè
Help, oh my Lord, with the ray of faith
Sollevala dal peso che la declina al fango
Lift it from the weight that declines it to the mud
Che la declina al fango
That declines it to the mud
A te sospiro e piango, mi raccomando a te
To you I sigh and cry, I commend myself to you
A te sospiro e piango, mi raccomando a te
To you I sigh and cry, I commend myself to you
Sai che la vita mia si strugge a poco a poco
You know that my life is slowly consumed
Come la cera al foco, come la neve al sol
Like wax in the fire, like snow in the sun
All'anima che anela di ricovrarti in braccio
To the soul that longs to be held in your arms
Di ricovrarti in braccio
To be held in your arms
Deh rompi Signore, il laccio che le impedisce il vol
Oh break, Lord, the bond that prevents it from flying
Deh rompi Signore, il laccio che le impedisce il vol
Oh break, Lord, the bond that prevents it from flying
Signor, pietà
Lord, have mercy
Signor, pietà
Lord, have mercy
Signor, pietà
Lord, have mercy
Signor, pietà
Lord, have mercy
