Le Veterane Lyrics in English by Biagio Antonacci

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Le Veterane by Biagio Antonacci from Italian to English.
Si sentiva parlare
You could hear talking
Si sentiva suonare da lì
You could hear music playing from there
Da lì
From there
Senza neanche bussare
Without even knocking
Sono entrato a guardare e qui
I went in to look, and here
E qui
And here
C'erano donne mature qua e là
There were mature women here and there
Donne che so che non conta l'età
Women for whom I know age doesn't matter
Le veterane che danzano belle
The veteran women dancing beautifully
Belle gagliarde truccate da stelle
Beautiful, spirited, made up like stars
Le veterane che danzano qua ah
The veteran women dancing here, ah
No panciera di lana
No wool belly band
Sì collana gitana e poi
Yes, a gypsy necklace, and then
E poi
And then
Nello sguardo un gran fuoco
A great fire in their gaze
Per sfidare anche il gioco con noi
To even challenge the game with us
Con noi
With us
La veterana è quella che sa
The veteran woman is the one who knows
Far di una danza un'intimità
How to turn a dance into intimacy
La veterana è quella che sa
The veteran woman is the one who knows
Far di una danza un'intimità
How to turn a dance into intimacy
La veterana è quella che sa
The veteran woman is the one who knows
Mi son fatto invitare
I got myself invited
Cominciamo a danzare però
We start dancing, though
Però
Though
La sentivo vibrare
I felt her vibrate
Come un pesce nel mare però
Like a fish in the sea, though
Però
Though
La veterana è quella che dà
The veteran woman is the one who gives
Tutta sé stessa nell'attualità
Her whole self in the present moment
La veterana è quella che sa
The veteran woman is the one who knows
Far di una danza un'intimità
How to turn a dance into intimacy
La veterana è quella che sa
The veteran woman is the one who knows
