Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Viva! by Ligabue from Italian to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Questa qua es per te
This here e.g. for you
E anche se non es un granche'
And even if it's not much
Ti volevo solo dire
I just wanted to tell you
Che era qui in fondo a me
That was here at the bottom of me
Es per te che lo sai
Es for you who know it
Di chi sto parlando dai
Who am I talking about from the
E ti piacera' un minuto
And you're going to like it for a minute
E poi te ne scorderai
And then you'll forget about it
Perche' sei
Because you're
Quanta vita mi hai passato
How much life you've spent with me
E non la chiedi indietro mai
And you never ask her back
Per quella che sei
For what you are
Sempre pronta, sempre ingorda
Always ready, always greedy
Sempre e solo come vuoi
Always and only however you want
Questa qua es per te
This here e.g. for you
Che non ti puoi spegnere
That you can't turn off
Non hai avuto tempo
You didn't have time
Devi troppo vivere
You have to live too much
Es per te questa qua
E.g. this one for you
Per la tua golosita'
For your golosita'
Ti strofini contro il mondo
You rub against the world
Tanto il mondo non ti avra'
The world won't have you
Perche' sei
Because you're
Quanta vita hai contagiato
How much life have you infected
Quanta vita brucerai
How much life you're going to burn
Per quella che sei
For what you are
Niente rate, niente sconti
No installments, no discounts
Solo viva come vuoi
Just live as you like
Questa qua es per te
This here e.g. for you
E non es niente facile
And it's not easy
Dire quello che non riesco
Say what I can't
Mentre tu vuoi ridere
While you want to laugh
Perche' sei
Because you're
Quanta vita mi hai passato
How much life you've spent with me
E non la chiedi indietro mai
And you never ask her back
Perche' sei
Because you're
Per quella che sei
For what you are
Sempre pronta, sempre ingorda
Always ready, always greedy
Sempre e solo come vuoi
Always and only however you want
Questa qua es per te
This here e.g. for you
Che sai sempre scegliere
That you always know how to choose
E io invece non ho scelta
And I have no choice
Te la devo scrivere
I have to write it to you
