Verse 1
I close my eyes so as not to see
The follies of the world
We are just passing through
We are sentient beings
Prisoners
Verse 2
How happy we were in the timeless immensity
In the light that has no sunset
In the rapture of love
That makes every moment intense
Chorus 1
Soon the west wind
It will bring without making noise
The air of change
Verse 3
I know a friend who prays in silence
He lives in the woods, following the tracks of rivers
He lies on the grass, blissful, carefree
He contemplates with a serene mind the colors of the sky
The colors of the sky
Verse 4
How fast life runs
Imponderable mystery
Let's learn to know ourselves
If we want to be free
From the pitfalls of attachments
Chorus 2
The darker the night, the closer the dawn
Air of change
The harmony of opposites
Bridge
Who will teach you the way?
Supreme love
Knowledge is transcendent
Beyond thought
From pure space to the nature of the mind
Never forget it

ImponderabileImponderable

Imponderabile translates to "imponderable" in English, meaning something that cannot be precisely measured, weighed, or evaluated. It's a sophisticated and less common word that adds a profound depth to the lyrics.

In the song, it's used in the phrase "Imponderabile mistero" (imponderable mystery) to describe life itself. This highlights the idea that life's true essence and meaning are beyond our full comprehension, making it an intriguing and thought-provoking choice.

"Aria di Cambiamento" (a Franco Battiato song performed here by Biagio Antonacci) is about closing your eyes to the noise of the world and remembering something quieter and truer underneath it.

The song opens with the singer shutting out the world's "follies," calling us just passing travelers, sentient beings who forget we were once free and happy in a timeless light. A friend who lives simply in the woods, watching the sky with a calm mind, becomes a small example of the peace the singer is reaching for.

The chorus names that peace directly: a "wind of change" moving us past opposing sides, and the idea that the darker the night gets, the closer the dawn is. Life passes fast and is hard to grasp, so the song asks us to know ourselves and let go of our attachments. Love is called the highest teacher, and real understanding is described as something beyond ordinary thought, reaching from pure awareness into the nature of the mind itself. The final line, "never forget it," turns the whole song into a quiet reminder to hold onto that clarity.
