Amami Amami Lyrics in English by MINACELENTANO

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Amami Amami by MINACELENTANO from Italian to English.
And if I had never loved you
Now you wouldn't be here
But don't ask me why
Now it's here, love me
And I'll never get used
To your voice and your goodbyes
Against our will
Now and right away, love me
Love me, love me
Unforgivably, yes
With your life in mine
Starting again from here
Love me, love me
Indifferently, yes
Without reason or pity
Simply like that
And if I had never loved you
Now who knows where I'd be
Among those who give up and those who hug you
And those who don't get how you are
Dangerous friend of mine
I'll be a danger to you
If it were affection I'd leave
But to me it's not affection
Love me, love me
Unforgivably, yes
With your life in mine
Starting again from here
Love me, love me
Inevitably, yes
Without reason or pity
'Cause nobody's like this
Love me, love me
Unforgivably, yes
With your life in mine
Starting again from here
Love me, love me
Inevitably, yes
Without reason or pity
'Cause nobody's like this

Imperdonabilmente — Unforgivably

Imperdonabilmente translates to "unforgivably". It's a strong and dramatic adverb that isn't commonly found in everyday conversation or many songs.

In "Amami Amami", the artists use this word to intensify the plea for love, asking to be loved "imperdonabilmente". It suggests a love so profound and all-consuming that it might even be considered a fault or an excess, yet it's precisely this intensity that makes it so captivating and unique in the song's context.

“Amami Amami” – which literally translates to “Love Me, Love Me” – is a dramatic duet where two Italian legends, Mina and Adriano Celentano, play a thrilling game of cat-and-mouse romance. From the very first line they admit that destiny itself has pulled them together: “If I had never loved you, you wouldn’t be here now.” The song swirls with that classic Italian mix of passion and fatalism, as each voice pleads to be loved “imperdonabilmente” (unforgivably) and “inevitabilmente” (inevitably), without explanations, excuses or second thoughts.

Listen closely and you’ll hear a love that is irresistible yet risky, sweet yet slightly dangerous. The singers know they might hurt each other – “I will be a danger to you” – but the pull is so strong that logic, pity and even self-preservation are pushed aside. What matters is the now: sharing one life, starting over from “right here,” and surrendering completely. It’s a fearless celebration of love that doesn’t need reasons, only the heartbeat of the moment. Dive in and let the soaring vocals and bold Italian lyrics remind you how thrilling uncontrollable love can be!
