Chissà Se In Cielo Passano Gli Who Lyrics in English by Ligabue
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Chissà Se In Cielo Passano Gli Who by Ligabue from Italian to English.
E buonanotte a tutti i suonatori
And goodnight to all the musicians
A quelli che la devono far fuori
To those who have to get it out
A chi c'ha il mondo sempre più lontano
To those who have the world always further away
Per chi ha vissuto sempre contromano
For those who've always lived the wrong way
A chi non butta via la notte coi pensieri
To those who don't waste the night with thoughts
A quelli che una coppia è già una folla
To those for whom a couple is already a crowd
E dicono che il cielo sia una balla
And say that heaven is bullsh*t
A quelli che da soli ci stan stretti
To those who feel cramped alone
E pensano che il cielo sia di tutti
And think that heaven is for everyone
A lui e lei che stanno insieme solo con la colla
To him and her who are together only with glue
E poi a quelli che non ritornano
And then to those who don't return
Certo lassù, forse lassù
Certainly up there, maybe up there
Sono capaci di non dormire mai più
They're capable of never sleeping again
Chissà se in cielo passano gli Who
Who knows if The Who play in heaven
Chissà se in cielo passano gli Who
Who knows if The Who play in heaven
Chissà che nome d'arte avrà il Dj
Who knows what stage name the DJ will have
Se sceglie sempre e solo tutto lui
If he always chooses everything himself
Se prende le richieste che gli fai
If he takes the requests you make
Che gli fai
That you make
A chi decide di ammazzare il tempo
To those who decide to kill time
E il tempo invece servirebbe vivo
And time instead would be needed alive
A chi sta in giro perché non ha scelta
To those who are out because they have no choice
Perché comunque il sonno non arriva
Because anyway sleep doesn't come
A quelli che ogni notte puoi giurarci son presenti
To those who, you can swear, are present every night
Ohé, buonanotte a chi la sa godere (godere)
Hey, goodnight to those who know how to enjoy it
A quelli che han bisogno di star male
To those who need to feel bad
A chi ha paura di restare fermo
To those who are afraid to stay still
E sogna un po' più forte quando è sveglio
And dreams a bit stronger when awake
A quelli che non hanno mai saputo dove andare
To those who've never known where to go
E poi a quelli che ci salutano
And then to those who say goodbye to us
Certo lassù, forse lassù
Certainly up there, maybe up there
Sono capaci di non sognare mai più
They're capable of never dreaming again
Chissà se in cielo passano gli Who
Who knows if The Who play in heaven
Chissà se in cielo passano gli Who
Who knows if The Who play in heaven
Chissà che nome d'arte avrà il Dj
Who knows what stage name the DJ will have
Se sceglie sempre e solo tutto lui
If he always chooses everything himself
Se prende le richieste che gli fai
If he takes the requests you make
Che gli fai
That you make

Did you like this lyrics translation?
contromano — against the traffic/wrong way
Contromano literally means "against the hand" but is commonly used to mean "against the traffic" or "the wrong way." It's a vivid and somewhat unusual word to find in song lyrics, making it memorable.
In this song, Ligabue uses it metaphorically to describe someone who has "vissuto sempre contromano" (always lived against the grain or the wrong way). It evokes a sense of rebellion or a life lived unconventionally, which is a powerful image that can entice learners to explore the song's deeper meaning.
