Tra Le Righe Lyrics in English by Biagio Antonacci
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Tra Le Righe by Biagio Antonacci from Italian to English.
Mi bastano i momenti che passo qui con te
I just need the moments I spend here with you
Per trasformare gli attimi in eterna eternità
To transform instants into eternal eternity
Mi bastano gli sguardi
I just need the glances
Gli sguardi che fanno male
The glances that hurt
Per giudicare se sia meglio fare o non fare
To judge if it's better to do or not to do
Tra le righe c'è la verità
Between the lines there's the truth
Tra le righe c'è la verità
Between the lines there's the truth
Io rubo, frugo e annego
I steal, rummage, and drown
Questo caos di città
This city's chaos
E poi faccio I complimenti a chi ha coraggio
And then I compliment those who have courage
E se ne va
And leaves
A chi si sveglia presto anche se va a letto tardi
To those who wake up early even if they go to bed late
Disprezzo invece chi accetta tutto e dice sì
Instead I despise those who accept everything and say yes
Ma tra le righe di qualche libro che
But between the lines of some book that
Potrebbe essere anche in casa mia
Could also be in my house
C'è il nostro destino
There's our destiny
C'è scritto chi verrà
It's written who will come
Spero che sia scritto in piccolo così
I hope it's written small like this
Ci può stare più vita che non basta mai
So more life can fit, which is never enough
Chissà quante pagine ho ancora da girare
Who knows how many pages I still have to turn
Il nostro è un folle imbroglio
Ours is a crazy mess
È un frullato di pensieri
It's a blend of thoughts
Di dubbi e di incertezze
Of doubts and uncertainties
Per noi che siamo nati ieri
For us who were born yesterday
Abbiamo tutto da imparare e ben poco da insegnare
We have everything to learn and very little to teach
Ma abbiamo un jolly nelle mani e voglia di restare
But we have a wild card in our hands and a desire to stay
Tra le righe dove c'è la verità
Between the lines where there's the truth
Ma tra le righe c'è la verità
But between the lines there's the truth
Ma tra le righe di qualche libro che
But between the lines of some book that
Potrebbe essere anche in casa mia
Could also be in my house
C'è il nostro destino
There's our destiny
C'è scritto chi verrà
It's written who will come
Spero che sia scritto in piccolo così
I hope it's written small like this
Ci può stare più vita che non basta mai
So more life can fit, which is never enough
Chissà quante pagine ho ancora da girare
Who knows how many pages I still have to turn
E poi chi scrive tra le righe
And then who writes between the lines
Chi decide di cancellare
Who decides to erase
Ogni parola un movimento
Every word a movement
Che non dovrebbe mai finire
That should never end
E poi chi scrive tra le righe
And then who writes between the lines
E chi decide di cancellare
And who decides to erase
Ogni parola un movimento
Every word a movement
Che non dovrebbe mai finire
That should never end
Chissà chi scrive tra le righe
Who knows who writes between the lines
E chi decide di cancellare
And who decides to erase
Ogni parola un movimento
Every word a movement
Che non dovrebbe mai finire
That should never end

Did you like this lyrics translation?
imbroglio — tangle / mess / complicated situation
Imbroglio in Italian refers to a complicated, confusing, or embarrassing situation, often involving a misunderstanding or a complex plot. It's a word with a rich history, even borrowed into English, making it intriguing for learners.
In the song, Biagio Antonacci uses it to describe the nature of a relationship or life itself: "Il nostro è un folle imbroglio" (Ours is a crazy tangle/mess). This suggests that their shared journey is complex and perhaps chaotic, full of uncertainties, which resonates with the song's themes of destiny and the unknown.
