Fallito Lyrics in English by Ghali

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Fallito by Ghali from Italian to English.
Io lo sapevo
I knew it
Sento una voce
I hear a voice
Nella mia testa
In my head
Mi parla veloce
It speaks to me fast
Chiama l'avvocato
Call the lawyer
Anzi uno non basta, chiamane un altro
Actually one isn't enough, call another one
Sperando non sia quello del Diavolo
Hoping it's not the Devil's
E dimmi un po' come stai oggi, Ghali?
And tell me a bit how are you today, Ghali?
Hai fatto i soldi, Ghali?
Did you make money, Ghali?
Passi dai bilocali
You go from two-room apartments
La villa a quattro piani
To a four-story villa
Sei diventato grande
You've grown up
Parchetto sul red carpet
Little park on the red carpet
Autografi alle piante
Autographs for plants
Dai tuoi amici, distante
From your friends, distant
La festa è finita e guarda ora tutti se ne vanno via
The party's over and look, now everyone's leaving
Evviva
Hooray
Ma non preoccuparti che ci sono io a farti compagnia
But don't worry, I'm here to keep you company
Stasera
Tonight
Sorrido
I smile
Gli altri mi danno del fallito
Others call me a failure
Puntavi su di me, ora punti il dito
You bet on me, now you point the finger
Prima di dormire poi che cosa gli racconterò? Uoh
Before sleeping then what will I tell him? Uoh
Sorrido
I smile
Sali soltanto se hai fallito
You only get on if you've failed
Ho un mostro sotto al letto, ormai è un amico
I have a monster under the bed, now he's a friend
Per farlo addormentare quale storia gli racconterò? Uoh
To make him fall asleep what story will I tell him? Uoh
Ci sei o no?
Are you in or not?
Se vado via ti mancherò
If I leave, you'll miss me
E adesso che te ne vai
And now that you're leaving
Che ne sarà di tutto quest'hype?
What will become of all this hype?
Non torno come prima
I'm not going back to how it was before
Non è più come prima
It's not like before anymore
Quattro amici e una panchina
Four friends and a bench
Ho cambiato la vicina
I changed my neighbor
Che mi chiede 'Come stai?'
Who asks me "How are you?"
Non sa del mio lifestyle
She doesn't know about my lifestyle
Dottor Jekyll e Mister Hype
Doctor Jekyll and Mister Hype
Il nuovo disco ora lo fai (non lo so)
You'll make the new album now (I don't know)
Ed ho mollato i campetti
And I left the local pitches
Ma loro stanno nei gesti
But they are in the gestures
Nei versi e crea diversi
In the verses and creates different
Hobby per quando si è persi
Hobbies for when one is lost
Tu sei il mio bro, mica questi
You're my bro, not these guys
So che capisci i miei testi
I know you understand my lyrics
In testa ho mille concetti
In my head I have a thousand concepts
Di mille libri mai letti
From a thousand unread books
La festa è finita e guarda ora tutti se ne vanno via
The party's over and look, now everyone's leaving
Evviva
Hooray
Ma non preoccuparti che ci sono io a farti compagnia
But don't worry, I'm here to keep you company
Stasera
Tonight
Sorrido
I smile
Gli altri mi danno del fallito
Others call me a failure
Puntavi su di me, ora punti il dito
You bet on me, now you point the finger
Prima di dormire poi che cosa gli racconterò? Uoh
Before sleeping then what will I tell him? Uoh
Sorrido
I smile
Sali soltanto se hai fallito
You only get on if you've failed
Ho un mostro sotto al letto, ormai è un amico
I have a monster under the bed, now he's a friend
Per farlo addormentare quale storia gli racconterò? Uoh
To make him fall asleep what story will I tell him? Uoh
Abracadabra, abracadabra
Abracadabra, abracadabra
Ho un mostro sotto al letto che mi fa Abracadabra, alakazam
I have a monster under the bed that goes Abracadabra, alakazam
Abracadabra, abracadabra
Abracadabra, abracadabra
Ti mostro come sparisce una star e alla gente piacerà
I'll show you how a star disappears and people will like it
Abracadabra, abracadabra
Abracadabra, abracadabra
Ho un mostro sotto al letto che mi fa abracadabra, alakazam
I have a monster under the bed that goes abracadabra, alakazam
Abracadabra, abracadabra
Abracadabra, abracadabra
Ti mostro come sparisce una star e alla gente piacerà
I'll show you how a star disappears and people will like it

Did you like this lyrics translation?

fallitofailure / failed

Fallito means "failure" or "failed." It's a striking word because it directly addresses a common fear and societal judgment, making it highly relatable and emotionally charged.

In the song, Ghali uses this word to confront the criticism he receives, singing, "Gli altri mi danno del fallito" (Others call me a failure). He then reclaims the word, inviting others who have "failed" to join him, transforming a negative label into a shared experience of resilience and authenticity.
