Bella D'Estate Lyrics in English by MIKA, Michele Bravi
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Bella D'Estate by MIKA from Italian to English.
È solo un addio
It's just a goodbye
Credimi, io non ci penso mai
Believe me, I never think about it
Vedo che hai pianto
I see you cried
Tu lo sapevi, ma da quando?
You knew it, but since when?
Bella d'estate, vai
Summer beauty, go
Via da me
Away from me
Notte d'incanto
Enchanting night
È bello vedere le luci laggiù
It's nice to see the lights down there
Io sono stanco
I'm tired
Non voglio parlare, parla tu
I don't want to talk, you talk
Bella d'estate vai
Summer beauty, go
Via da me
Away from me
Forse perché ti credevo felice cosi
Maybe because I thought you were happy like that
Proprio così, fra le mie braccia
Just like that, in my arms
Forse perché ci bastava arrivare fin qui
Maybe because it was enough for us to get this far
Come onde di notte sulla spiaggia
Like waves at night on the beach
Uh, la, la, la, la, la
Uh, la, la, la, la, la
Piccoli fuochi
Small fires
Noi siamo zingari di periferia
We are suburban gypsies
I nostri son giochi
Ours are games
Che durano poco
That don't last long
E la notte se li porta via
And the night takes them away
Bella d'estate vai
Summer beauty, go
Via da me
Away from me
Forse perché ti credevo felice così
Maybe because I thought you were happy like that
Proprio cosi, fra le mie braccia
Just like that, in my arms
Forse perché, ci bastava arrivare fin qui
Maybe because it was enough for us to get this far
Come onde di notte sulla spiaggia
Like waves at night on the beach
Uh, la, la, la, la, la
Uh, la, la, la, la, la
Uh, la, la, la, la, la
Uh, la, la, la, la, la
(Bella d'estate, vai via da me)
(Summer beauty, go away from me)
Chiudi gli occhi e ti senti per sempre cosi
Close your eyes and you feel like this forever
Ancora qui fra le mie braccia
Still here in my arms
Per tutti e due basterebbe tornare fin qui
For both of us, it would be enough to come back this far
Come onde di notte sulla spiaggia
Like waves at night on the beach
Uh, la, la, la, la, la
Uh, la, la, la, la, la

Did you like this lyrics translation?
zingari — gypsies
Zingari translates to "gypsies". It's a less common word in everyday Italian, making it stand out in the lyrics.
In "Bella D'Estate", MIKA uses zingari metaphorically to describe a carefree, transient lifestyle. He sings, "Noi siamo zingari di periferia" (We are gypsies from the outskirts), evoking an image of young lovers living on the fringes, with their fleeting games and emotions carried away by the night. This word adds a touch of romantic wanderlust and a sense of impermanence to the song's narrative.
