Below, I translated the lyrics of the song L'Importante È Finire by Mina from Italian to English.
Adesso arriva lui
Here he comes
Apre piano la porta
He gently opens the door
Poi si butta sul letto
Then throws himself on the bed
E poi e poi
And then and then
Ad un tratto io sento
Suddenly I feel
Afferrarmi le mani
Him grabbing my hands
Le mie gambe tremare
My legs trembling
E poi e poi e poi e poi
And then and then and then and then
Spegne adagio la luce
He slowly turns off the light
La sua bocca sul collo
His mouth on my neck
Ha il respiro un po' caldo
His breath is a little warm
Ho deciso lo mollo
I've decided I'm leaving him
Ma non so se poi farlo
But I don't know if I can do it
O lasciarlo soffrire
Or let him suffer
L'importante è finire
The important thing is to finish
Adesso volta la faccia
Now he turns his face
Questa è l'ultima volta che lo lascio morire
This is the last time I let him die
E poi e poi
And then and then
Ha talento da grande lui
He's so talented
Nel fare l'amore
At making love
Sa pigliare il mio cuore
He knows how to capture my heart
E poi e poi e poi e poi
And then and then and then and then
Ha il volto sconvolto
His face is overwhelmed
Io gli dico ti amo
I tell him I love you
Ricomincia da capo
He starts all over again
È violento il respiro
His breathing is violent
Io non so se restare
I don't know whether to stay
O rifarlo morire
Or make him die again
L'importante è finire
The important thing is to finish
