Mi Fido Di Te Lyrics in English Jovanotti

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Mi Fido Di Te by Jovanotti from Italian to English.
Houses of bread, gatherings of frogs
Old women dancing in Cadillacs
Golden muscles, laurel crowns
Love songs for kids in tails
Serious music, shifting light
Falling rain, life flowing
Stray dogs, camels and Magi kings
Maybe it hurts, yet I'm up for it
To stay plugged in
To live in one breath
To stretch out over the ravine
To look down
Vertigo isn't
Fear of falling
But desire to fly
I trust you
I trust you
I trust you
I trust you
I trust you
Hey, I trust you
What are you willing to lose
Flashes of light, a cross on the neck
The love goddess moves in jeans
Asses and chains, well-behaved killers
The radio turns on to a funky track
Bandaged heads, tended wounds
The sun's rent is paid in advance, please
Rainbow, plus times minus minus
Maybe it hurts, yet I'm up for it
To stay plugged in
To live in one breath
To stretch out over the ravine
To look down
Vertigo isn't
Fear of falling
But desire to fly
I trust you
I trust you
I trust you
What are you willing to lose
I trust you
I trust you
I trust you
What are you willing to lose
Rage, wonder, the role, the actor
Doctor, what symptoms does happiness have
Evolution, the sky in jail
This isn't a drill
Strength and courage
Thirst, the mirage
The moon in the other half
Wolves lying in wait, the worst is over
Maybe it hurts, yet I'm up for it
To stay plugged in
To live in one breath
To stretch out over the ravine
To look down
Vertigo isn't
Fear of falling
But desire to fly
I trust you
I trust you
I trust you
What are you willing to lose
I trust you
I trust you
I trust you
What are you willing to lose

SONG MEANING

Picture a playful carousel of images: bread-brick houses, frogs holding meetings, grandmothers dancing in Cadillacs, stray dogs and shooting stars whizzing past a funky radio beat. Jovanotti fills the verse with quirky snapshots to mirror the beautiful chaos of real life, where the ordinary and the surreal coexist. In the middle of this whirlwind, he repeats a liberating mantra: “La vertigine non è paura di cadere ma voglia di volare” — vertigo is not the fear of falling, but the urge to fly.

That bold declaration leads to the heart of the song: trust. “Mi fido di te” (“I trust you”) becomes both a confession and a challenge. Jovanotti invites us to leap over life’s edge and believe in someone — or something — enough to risk losing our certainties. What are you willing to give up to feel truly alive? With its lively collage of images and its irresistible rhythm, the song celebrates courage, connection, and the thrill of embracing the unknown.
