Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Se Si Potesse Non Morire by Modà from Italian to English.

If I had the time to think

A bit more about the beauty of things

I'd notice how yellow and warm the sun is

How simple it is if it rains and you give yourself a window

Just to watch

And to make better

Everything while you make love

If I just had a little more time to travel

I'd shatter my heart into salt powder

To cover every centimeter of sea

If I could keep

More promises and in return have the certainty

That roses will bloom without thorns

Things would change

Imagine if with one jump you could

You could even fly

If in an embrace you could disappear

And if kisses could be eaten too

There'd be a bit more love and less hunger

And we wouldn't even have time to suffer

And then imagine if instead you could not die

And if the stars could be seen in the sunlight

If you could be born every month

To feel again the sweetness of a mother and a father

To sleep in the dark with no more fears

While outside the storm begins

If it were possible to gift

A little faith to those who don't believe in good anymore

And animals could talk to us

We'd start asking ourselves a bit more often

If in this world they're the ones who are people

If I could walk toward the sky with closed eyes

Aware that you never stop breathing

Things would change

Imagine if with one jump you could

You could even fly

If in an embrace you could disappear

And if kisses could be eaten too

There'd be a bit more love and less hunger

And we wouldn't even have time to suffer

And then imagine if instead you could not die

And if the stars could be seen in the sunlight

If you could be born every month

To feel again the sweetness of a mother and a father

To sleep in the dark with no more fears

And then imagine if instead you could not die

And if the stars could be seen in the sunlight

If you could be born every month

To feel again the sweetness of a mother and a father

To sleep in the dark with no more fears

While outside a storm begins

SONG MEANING

Close your eyes and picture a world built on what if. That is exactly where Modà’s “Se Si Potesse Non Morire” takes us. Line after line, the singer imagines having extra time to admire sunshine, share windows with rain, sprinkle his heart like salt across every sea, or even fly with a single jump. Each wish is playful and poetic, yet it quietly exposes how quickly ordinary moments slip away when we rush through life.

Underneath the dreamy images is a heartfelt reminder: we are mortal, and that makes every hug, kiss, and sunrise precious. By fantasizing about endless births, fearless nights, and a planet where animals speak, the song nudges us to value the present, keep our promises, and spread love so there is “a bit more love and a little less hunger.” It is a tender anthem of hope, urging listeners to slow down, notice beauty, and live fully—even while we know we cannot press pause on time.
