Stai Tranquillo Lyrics in English by Ex-Otago
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Stai Tranquillo by Ex-Otago from Italian to English.
E la notte ti vengo a cercare
And at night I come looking for you
Anche se non so dove andare
Even if I don't know where to go
Poi ti cerco nel vento
Then I look for you in the wind
In un giorno di mare
On a day by the sea
Oppure negli occhi
Or in the eyes
Di un meridionale
Of a southerner
Scusa
Sorry
Non riesco a stare fermo
I can't stay still
Ma per favore
But please
Non mi dire stai tranquillo
Don't tell me to be calm
Perché tranquillo non sono
Because I'm not calm
Perché se cerco e non trovo
Because if I search and don't find
Io mi agito oh oh
I get agitated oh oh
E non mi dire stai tranquillo
And don't tell me to be calm
Perché tranquillo non sono
Because I'm not calm
Perché se cerco e non trovo
Because if I search and don't find
Io mi agito oh oh
I get agitated oh oh
Ma come faccio a stare allegro
But how can I be happy
Se ti cerco
If I look for you
E non ti trovo
And I don't find you
Forse dovrei aspettare
Maybe I should wait
E stare più sereno
And be calmer
Tranquillo aspettare
Calmly wait
Come fa il portiere
Like the goalkeeper does
Prima del calcio di rigore
Before the penalty kick
Aspetto
I wait
Io non so cosa aspetto
I don't know what I'm waiting for
E non so dove aspetto
And I don't know where I'm waiting
Aspetto e spero
I wait and hope
Aspetto
I wait
Io non so cosa aspetto
I don't know what I'm waiting for
E non so dove aspetto
And I don't know where I'm waiting
Scusa
Sorry
Non riesco a stare calmo
I can't stay calm
Ma per favore
But please
Non mi dire stai tranquillo
Don't tell me to be calm
Perché tranquillo non sono
Because I'm not calm
Perché se cerco e non trovo
Because if I search and don't find
Io mi agito oh oh
I get agitated oh oh
E non mi dire stai tranquillo
And don't tell me to be calm
Perché tranquillo non sono
Because I'm not calm
Perché se cerco e non trovo
Because if I search and don't find
Io mi agito oh oh
I get agitated oh oh

meridionale — southerner
Meridionale literally translates to "southerner" and refers to someone from the southern part of Italy. It's a less common word in song lyrics, making it stand out.
In the song, the singer is searching for someone and mentions looking "negli occhi di un meridionale" (in the eyes of a southerner). This specific detail adds a touch of cultural flavor and a sense of searching in unexpected places, making the word both interesting and evocative.
