Il Prato Delle Anime Lyrics in English by Biagio Antonacci
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Il Prato Delle Anime by Biagio Antonacci from Italian to English.
Sono stato molto tempo fermo lì
I was stopped there for a long time
A cercare la mia anima nel prato delle anime
Looking for my soul in the meadow of souls
E queste ali malandatesembra che non volo più
And these worn-out wings, it seems I don't fly anymore
Ad un tratto un'anima, la mia
Suddenly a soul, mine
Che impressione osservarla da quassù
What a feeling to observe it from up here
Qualcosa in me non va
Something in me isn't right
È propio qui che cambierò
It's right here that I'll change
Il non-amore se ne andrà da me
The non-love will go away from me
Uuu e non è fantasia
Uuu and it's not fantasy
Uuu non è la solita brutta bugia
Uuu it's not the usual ugly lie
Uuu ho visto l'anima mia
Uuu I saw my soul
Uuu non ha colore, né forma, né odore
Uuu it has no color, nor shape, nor smell
Uuu conosce quello che c'è dentro di me
Uuu it knows what's inside of me
Uuu è proprio la mia
Uuu it's really mine
Questo sole alto la riflette un pò
This high sun reflects it a little
L'ho sentita come dire
I heard it as if to say
Mi hai lasciata andare via
You let me go away
Come vedi sono libera un pò come lo eri tu
As you see I'm free a bit like you were
Hai preferito a me due soldi in più
You preferred a little more money over me
Sono un giocattolo se non torni in me
I'm a toy if you don't come back to me
Sono un barattolo senz'anima
I'm a jar without a soul
Sono una pagina che puoi saltare
I'm a page you can skip
Sono nessuno senza l'anima
I'm nobody without the soul
Uuu e l'anima si sollevò
Uuu and the soul rose
Uuu passò vicino alla sua bocca
Uuu it passed near his mouth
Uuu e lui la baciò
Uuu and he kissed it
È l'anima mia
It's my soul

Did you like this lyrics translation?
malandate — battered / worn out
Malandate is an interesting and somewhat uncommon adjective that means 'battered', 'worn out', or 'in poor condition'. It's more descriptive than a simple 'old' or 'broken'.
In the song, Biagio Antonacci uses it to describe his wings: "E queste ali malandate sembra che non volo più" (And these battered wings seem like I don't fly anymore). This word vividly conveys a sense of weariness and inability, making it a memorable choice to entice learners.
