Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Senza Fare Sul Serio by Malika Ayane from Italian to English.

Some wait for a miracle

And others, instead, for love

Some ask a sleeping pill for peace

Some sleep only on the metro

Time can pass slowly

But if you waste time

Then time slips away, the moment

Slow like the movement

That, if you do it distracted

You lose your moment

You miss the moment

And some watch the clouds

And some wait by the phone

Some always answer you, though

Some can't say no

Time can pass slowly

But if you waste time

Then time slips away, the moment

Slow like the movement

That, if you do it distracted

You lose your moment

You miss the moment

You don't know how I'd like

To shrink everything to one sunny day

You don't know how I'd like

To know how to look back

Without taking it seriously

How I'd love to drift off and laugh

Some feel in danger

Some feel like a hero

Some grow more sour with age

Some, like wine, get better

Time can pass slowly

But if you waste time

Then time slips away, the moment

Slow like the movement

That, if you do it distracted

You lose your moment

You miss the moment

Seize the moment

You don't know how I'd like

To shrink everything to one sunny day

You don't know how I'd like

To know how to look back

Without taking it seriously

How I'd love to drift off and laugh

SONG MEANING

Senza Fare Sul Serio invites us to hop on a slow-moving carousel of everyday characters: someone praying for a miracle, another begging a sleeping pill for peace, commuters nodding off on the subway, friends who always say yes, and souls who never learned to say no. While the minutes tick by lazily, Malika Ayane reminds us that slow time can still slip away. If we get distracted or hesitate, the perfect chance ‑ the attimo ‑ vanishes before our eyes.

In the chorus she confesses a simple wish: to shrink life’s chaos into one sunny day, to look back on the past without being too serious, and to let herself laugh again. The song becomes a sparkling call to seize the moment, lighten up, and savor life’s sweetness before it speeds ahead. Whether you feel like souring with age or improving like fine wine, Malika’s voice nudges you to stop overthinking, loosen your grip, and dance along with time instead of racing against it.
