Le Mie Parole Lyrics in English by Gianluca Grignani

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Le Mie Parole by Gianluca Grignani from Italian to English.
Ciao, come va?
Hi, how's it going?
C'era la luce accesa, fa rima con sorpresa
The light was on, it rhymes with surprise
Ed eccomi qua
And here I am
Anche se non ti va
Even if you don't like it
E non ti va perché ho tradito
And you don't like it because I cheated
E non mi hai mai perdonato
And you never forgave me
Ma che sarà?
But what's the big deal?
Ma sì, ma sì che io sto bene sai
But yes, yes I'm fine, you know
Anche quando nello specchio
Even when in the mirror
Poi mi sento un po' in difetto e non mi va
Then I feel a bit flawed and I don't like it
Ahi, che male si sta, sai
Ouch, how bad it feels, you know
Dover passare tutte queste pene
Having to go through all this pain
Solo per non aver detto no quando conviene
Just for not having said no when it was convenient
Perché giuro non volevo
Because I swear I didn't want to
Non lo sapevo che avrei fatto fatica
I didn't know I would struggle
A dire: 'Ma si me ne frego' (ma si me ne frego)
To say: "But yeah, I don't give a f*ck" (but yeah, I don't give a f*ck)
E anche se non l'ho mai ammesso
And even if I never admitted it
È stato soltanto sesso lo sai e perché
It was just s*x, you know, and because
Non mi va che è successo
I don't like that it happened
Ed ora guardami qua, a raccontarti la verità
And now look at me here, telling you the truth
Sapessi che male che fa e non mi passa
If you only knew how much it hurts and it doesn't pass
Non se ne va
It doesn't go away
Ma se non passa, lo sai, è per onestà
But if it doesn't pass, you know, it's for honesty
E adesso cosa c'è?
And now what is it?
Perché resti li seduta
Why do you stay sitting there
A cercar di far la guerra degli sguardi con me?
Trying to wage a war of glances with me?
Ma lo so io che c'è, eh?
But I know what's wrong, huh?
E no non te li voglio dire
And no, I don't want to tell you them
Perché i dettagli fan morire un po' anche me
Because the details make me die a little too
E poi, poi sarà l'età, eh già
And then, then it must be age, oh yeah
O qualcosa dentro me, sì qualcosa ancora che
Or something inside me, yes something still that
Purtroppo non va
Unfortunately isn't right
Ahi, che male si sta, sai
Ouch, how bad it feels, you know
Dover passare tutte queste pene
Having to go through all this pain
Solo per non aver detto no quando conviene
Just for not having said no when it was convenient
Perché giuro non volevo
Because I swear I didn't want to
Non lo sapevo che avrei fatto fatica
I didn't know I would struggle
A dire: 'Ma si me ne frego' (ma si me ne frego)
To say: "But yeah, I don't give a f*ck" (but yeah, I don't give a f*ck)
E anche se non l'ho mai ammesso
And even if I never admitted it
È stato soltanto sesso lo sai e perché
It was just s*x, you know, and because
Non mi va che è successo
I don't like that it happened
Ed ora guardami qua, a raccontarti la verità
And now look at me here, telling you the truth
Sapessi che male che fa e non mi passa
If you only knew how much it hurts and it doesn't pass
Non se ne va
It doesn't go away
Ma se non passa, lo sai, è per onestà
But if it doesn't pass, you know, it's for honesty
Ma se ti capitasse mai di sentir questa canzone
But if you ever happen to hear this song
Tu continua vivi al sole, non pensar che sia per te
You keep living in the sun, don't think it's for you
Sono solo mie parole, anche quelle che fan male
They're just my words, even the ones that hurt
Se ti capitasse mai quel che capita anche a me
If what happens to me ever happens to you
Che ti giuro non volevo
That I swear I didn't want to
Io non sapevo che avrei fatto fatica
I didn't know I would struggle
A dire: 'Ma si me ne frego'
To say: "But yeah, I don't give a f*ck"
E se poi non l'ho mai ammesso
And if then I never admitted it
È stato soltanto sesso lo sai e perché
It was just s*x, you know, and because
Non mi va, non mi va che è successo
I don't like it, I don't like that it happened
Che male fa
How much it hurts
La verità, a raccontarla se non ti va
The truth, telling it if you don't want to
Ti ucciderà eh già
It will kill you, oh yeah
Ma poi ti passa e se non passa è per onestà
But then it passes and if it doesn't pass it's for honesty
Per onestà
For honesty

difetto — defect / flaw

Difetto translates to "defect" or "flaw". It's an interesting word because it goes beyond simple imperfections, suggesting a deeper, more inherent fault.

In the song, Grignani sings, "Anche quando nello specchio / Poi mi sento un po' in difetto" (Even when in the mirror / Then I feel a bit flawed). He uses this word to express a feeling of inadequacy or not being good enough, revealing a vulnerable side that many can relate to.
