Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Impressioni Di Settembre by Francesco Renga from Italian to English.
Quante gocce di rugiada intorno a me
How many drops of dew around me
Cerco il sole ma non c'è
I look for the sun but it's not there
Dorme ancora la campagna forse no
The countryside is still sleeping, maybe not
Già l'odore di terra
Already the smell of earth
Odor di grano
Smell of wheat
Sale adagio verso me
Rises slowly towards me
E la vita nel mio petto batte piano
And life in my chest beats softly
Respiro la nebbia
I breathe the fog
Quanto verde tutto intorno
How much green all around
E ancor più in là
And even further beyond
Sembra quasi un mare d'erba
It almost looks like a sea of grass
E leggero il mio pensiero vola e va
And my thought, light, flies away
Ho quasi paura che si perda
I'm almost afraid it will get lost
Un cavallo tende il collo verso il prato
A horse stretches its neck towards the meadow
Resta fermo come me
It stays still like me
Faccio un passo
I take a step
È già fuggito
It has already fled
No cosa sono adesso non lo so
No, what I am now, I don't know
Un uomo in cerca di se stesso
A man in search of himself
No cosa sono adesso non lo so
No, what I am now, I don't know
Solo il suono del mio passo
Only the sound of my step
E in tanto il sole
And meanwhile the sun
Tra la nebbia filtra già
Already filters through the fog
