Fino A Ieri Lyrics in English by Francesco Renga
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Fino A Ieri by Francesco Renga from Italian to English.
E forse quel che ti dico non ti piacerà
And maybe you won't like what I tell you
Uh uh, mi senti?
Uh uh, do you hear me?
Io sono qua, sai
I'm here, you know
Ogni tanto ne ho bisogno
Every now and then I need it
Devo andarmene via
I have to leave
Tu non credi
You don't believe
Anima mia?
My dear?
Ascolta
Listen
Ci sono volte in cui non so
There are times when I don't know
Cosa mi piace e cosa no
What I like and what I don't
Se rimanere oppure andarmene
Whether to stay or to leave
Fino a ieri non c'eri
Until yesterday you weren't there
E qui respiravo la mia libertà
And here I breathed my freedom
Tra pensieri e bicchieri
Between thoughts and drinks
Sporchi, irrisolto
Dirty, unresolved
E senza volontà
And without willpower
Fino a ieri la mia vita era una scia
Until yesterday my life was a trail
Di giornate
Of days
Buttate via ma
Thrown away but
C'era sempre qualche amica
There was always some friend
Piena di fantasia
Full of imagination
Uh uh, bei tempi
Uh uh, good times
Bambina mia
My girl
Ascolta
Listen
Ci sono volte in cui non so
There are times when I don't know
Cosa mi piace e cosa no
What I like and what I don't
Se voglio amarti
If I want to love you
Oppure ucciderti
Or to kill you
Fino a ieri non c'eri
Until yesterday you weren't there
E qui respiravo la mia libertà
And here I breathed my freedom
Tra bicchieri e pensieri
Between drinks and thoughts
Sporchi, irrisolto
Dirty, unresolved
E senza volontà
And without willpower
Senza volontà
Without willpower
Non mi ascolti
You don't listen to me
Stai già piangendo
You're already crying
Se ti amo?
Do I love you?
Eccome, no
Absolutely, no doubt
Eccome, no
Absolutely, no doubt
Fino a ieri non c'eri
Until yesterday you weren't there
E qui respiravo la mia libertà
And here I breathed my freedom
Questa casa è troppo stretta
This house is too small
Una stanza in più ci servirà
We'll need one more room
Quando mamma verrà a stare un poco qua
When mom comes to stay a little here
È successo tutto in fretta
It all happened quickly
Commissario sono sotto shock
Commissioner, I'm in shock
Io davvero non volevo ucciderla
I really didn't want to kill her
Sono una vittima
I'm a victim

Commissario — Commissioner / Inspector
Commissario translates to "Commissioner" or "Inspector" in English. It's a formal title for a police officer, often used in Italian crime dramas.
In the context of this song, the word appears in a dramatic confession: "Commissario sono sotto shock / Io davvero non volevo ucciderla / Sono una vittima" (Commissioner, I'm in shock / I really didn't want to kill her / I am a victim). This sudden shift to a crime narrative makes the word highly impactful and intriguing, drawing the listener into the song's unexpected twist.
