Ora Ti Canto Il Mare Lyrics in English Negramaro

Home / Lyrics Translation / Negramaro / Ora Ti Canto Il Mare

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Ora Ti Canto Il Mare by Negramaro from Italian to English.

Outside it was spring, at home love was raining

And you who stayed silent for hours and hours

Time drifting still above a balcony

And I still think about it and laugh, the heart laughs and laughs

The slow breath of a two-way street

The things I've got to say aren't even half a one

The breeze that's blowing now carries summer away first

Before going back to the world, before going back to the sea

And now I sing you the sea

What a beautiful love song

Hear how sweet the music is even with the storm

We lifted our heads, it's raining, we'll keep swimming

What a perfect beautiful spot to make love, and make love again

Now I sing you the sea

The sea, the sea, the sea my love

Swear to me you weren't serious, is summer really over?

And you who can stay quiet, quiet, quiet and not sweat

The slow breath that hides every torment

It's time to shout it to the world, it's time to shout it to the sea

As if by magic the sea is there, everything exploding in the sun

Till I see you fade away

Now I sing you the sea

What a beautiful love song

Hear how sweet the music is even with the storm

We lifted our heads, it's raining, we'll keep swimming

What a perfect beautiful spot to make love, and make love again

Now I sing you the sea

Now I sing you the sea, how lovely that summer ends

And all the sweet music that made us fall in love

If we try to sleep now we're ready to dream

In perfect silence you wanna make love, if you wanna make love

Now I sing you the sea

The sea

Now I sing you the sea

The sea

Now I sing you the sea

What a beautiful love song

Hear how sweet the music is even with the storm

We lifted our heads, it's raining, we'll keep swimming

What a perfect beautiful spot to make love, and make love again

Now I sing you the sea

The sea, the sea, the sea my love

SONG MEANING

“Ora Ti Canto Il Mare” feels like a postcard from an unforgettable summer, one that refuses to end just because the calendar says so. Negramaro paints a vivid scene: outside it’s spring, but inside the house it’s raining love; time pauses on a balcony while two hearts communicate through silences and sweet laughter. The sea becomes a living soundtrack, its waves matching every heartbeat and storm, inviting the couple to keep swimming in their passion even when the sky opens up.

In the chorus, singing the sea is a promise to celebrate love beyond seasons, to shout it to the world before autumn steals the sun. The beach turns into the “perfect place” for whispered dreams, playful vows, and endless embraces. Whether it’s a calm breeze or a sudden downpour, the song reminds us that real romance doesn’t hide from a little weather—it dives straight in, ready to float, dance, and make memories that glitter like sunlight on the water.
