Anche Fragile Lyrics in English Elisa

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Anche Fragile by Elisa from Italian to English.
Hold me up when I'm about to fall
Just sit here, talk to me again
If I'm lost for words I never ask you
But take me to the sea, to dance
Don't trust
You know, when I tell you everything's fine like this
And forgive me, I'm strong, yeah
But then I'm also fragile
Nothing special is needed
Just get back to thinking everything's beautiful and special
Nobody ever says it, but I want to commit
To saving a piece of heart
I don't live without dreams, and you know that's true
And forgive me if I'm strong, yeah
And if then I'm also fragile
Come here but bring your eyes and your heart
I'll bring you an ice cream you can't eat
And let's cry together, since you never cry
Never, and don't hide
With jokes, don't push me away
Instead tell me what you'd like to do
And let's laugh together, 'cause we always laugh
Always, always, but it's never enough, never
I can't see a boundary
You know I don't like putting a limit, a name on things
You find it dangerous and don't know how to take me, you say
"I don't know if I believe you"
Without all this hurry would you really love me?
Would you really look for me?
The strong one, yeah, but also the fragile one
Come here, but bring your eyes and your heart too
I know how to disobey, you know that well
And let's cry together, since you never cry
Never, and don't hide
With jokes, don't distract me
Let's see where we can get
And let's laugh together, 'cause we always laugh
Always, always, but it's never enough
Never, never, never
Never, never, never
Never, never, never
Come here, but bring your eyes and your heart too
I'll bring you an ice cream you can't eat
And let's cry together, since you never cry
Never, and don't hide
With jokes, don't distract me
Let's see where we can get
And let's laugh together, 'cause we always laugh
Always, always, but it's never enough
Never, never, never
Never, never, never
Never, never, never

SONG MEANING

Anche Fragile ("Also Fragile") finds Portuguese singer-songwriter Elisa pulling back the curtain on her toughest facade and asking for genuine, heartfelt connection. In the lyrics she admits, "sono forte, sì / ma poi sono anche fragile"I am strong, yes, but then I’m also fragile. She pleads for simple moments that steady her when she is about to fall: sitting together and talking, dancing by the sea, sharing a forbidden ice cream. These snapshots reveal her belief that love is not built on grand gestures but on seeing each other with both eyes and heart, laughing together, and even shedding tears side by side.

At its core the song is a tender reminder that true intimacy means accepting contradictions. Elisa celebrates dreams without borders, rejects rigid labels, and invites her partner to explore how far they can go together. By openly acknowledging vulnerability, she turns it into a source of strength, showing learners that embracing every layer of oneself — the brave and the breakable — is what makes life “bello e speciale,” beautiful and special.
