Foglie Al Gelo Lyrics in English Francesco Gabbani

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Foglie Al Gelo by Francesco Gabbani from Italian to English.
A flower falls without making a sound
Without guilt or pain
Without asking why
From sleep an illusion takes shape
That life is a chance
And tomorrow will offer itself
Bridge
The sky above us changes
There's no hurry, and then
On waking the dark will get scared
Between my hands something new
My dignity
Will shine like white snow in the sun
We'll return
White leaves in the frost, naked and weightless
We'll find again
Locked in a drawer another surrendered dream
Without asking why
Yesterday it was there and today it's not
Verse 1
Light as a change of season
A desire to start over
Even a little will be enough
It's like it never happened
The beauty of a beginning
Seems to never end
Bridge
The sky above us changes
There's no hurry, and then
On waking the dark will fall asleep
Between my hands something new
My dignity
Will shine like white snow in the sun
We'll return
White leaves in the frost, naked and weightless
We'll find again
Locked in a drawer another surrendered dream
Without asking why
Yesterday it was there and today it's not
Like surrendered leaves
With no more defenses
Despite the wind we're still hanging on
Buds now open
Veins of water and light
Waiting for the sun while the sky stays silent
We'll return
White leaves in the frost, naked and weightless
We'll find again
Locked in a drawer another surrendered dream
Without asking why
Yesterday it was there and today it's not

SONG MEANING

Foglie Al Gelo paints a poetic picture of life’s endless cycle of loss and renewal. Francesco Gabbani compares us to flowers that fall without a sound and to "white leaves in the frost," weightless yet still clinging to the branch. The lyrics remind us that even after dreams are tucked away in a drawer or yesterday’s hopes seem to vanish, a new dawn is always waiting. Darkness panics at sunrise, dignity shines like fresh snow in the sun, and the changing sky tells us there is no need to rush—rebirth will come in its own time.

Listening to this song feels like watching winter melt into spring. It encourages you to let go of what has withered, trust the quiet beauty of beginnings, and believe that abandoned dreams can bloom again. With gentle optimism and sparkling imagery, Gabbani invites you to shake off the chill, rediscover your lightness, and greet tomorrow with open hands.
