Sei Lyrics in English Negramaro

Home / Lyrics Translation / Negramaro / Sei

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Sei by Negramaro from Italian to English.

Hey, wanna talk to me

About when you had another face and you were walking toward

Her and you didn't think

That from that moment you'd have been what you are

You are, you're not what you were anymore

Back then, and now you're what's here

Different from me

And to think how much all those kisses betrayed

That took the words from our mouths

That we would've wanted to shout to convince ourselves that

Loving each other was something we'd never be able to do

So explain to me the meaning of our kisses

And if you find one, at least tell me what it is

Tell me if there is

Hey, wanna listen to me

I still have other faces to put on, who are you?

You don't resemble me among the ones I've sewn

And I don't remember who you are anymore

You are, you're not what you once were anymore

And now you're what's here

Different from me

And to think that when they kidnapped all the thoughts

Those lying kisses looked real

Meanwhile they kept us from convincing ourselves that

We'd never have seen the end of all those kisses

Because we'd have stolen them without end

Of what you're giving me now, where's the start?

You are, what I see you are

A reflection that doesn't belong to me, I don't recognize myself

You mirror, can you at least tell me who you are?

What I see you are

On my mouth I taste your kisses

In my eyes I see your eyes again and I finally know who you are

And to think that when I was betrayed by all those kisses

I didn't realize how much you stayed

In the eyes, on the face, in the air there's a part of you

And I understood that if I reflect myself looking at my face

I don't recognize myself, but then a nice smile

Cuts across my face and I tell myself I'm identical to you

Hey, wanna change me

SONG MEANING

Sei is like stepping into a hall of mirrors where every reflection whispers a different story of love and identity. Over pulsing guitars and Giuliano Sangiorgi’s unmistakable voice, the narrator speaks to a former lover and to his own reflection at the same time. Those once-electrifying kisses have stolen words, twisted memories, and turned the couple into strangers. Now he stares at the “you” in the mirror, wondering: Who have we become?

The song swings between nostalgia and self-discovery. Each chorus peels back another mask, showing how love can both reshape us and leave invisible fingerprints on our faces. By the end he realizes that, even if he no longer recognizes himself, a sudden smile reveals he is still “identical to you” – proof that every kiss, true or false, has permanently blended their identities. “Sei” is a bittersweet anthem about finding (or losing) yourself in another person, set to the passionate rock sound that makes Negramaro one of Italy’s most beloved bands.
