È Non È Lyrics in English by Niccolò Fabi

Home / Lyrics translation / Niccolò Fabi / È Non È

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song È Non È by Niccolò Fabi from Italian to English.

Se potessi fare a meno di decidere

If I could avoid deciding

Non sarei di certo così stanco

I certainly wouldn't be so tired

Ogni volta è una conquista riconoscere

Every time it's a struggle to recognize

Quale sia la mia metà del campo

Which is my side of the field

Guardo i fogli ancora bianchi sul mio tavolo

I look at the still blank papers on my table

Non ho idea di cosa farci e quindi sto

I've no idea what to do with them and so I am

Come un uomo che davanti ad un citofono

Like a man who's in front of an intercom

E non ricorda più il cognome

And no longer remembers the surname

Certe volte le ambizioni si confondono

Sometimes ambitions get confused

Ed il nuovo non è sempre il meglio

And the new isn't always the best

Cosa conservare e cosa cedere

What to keep and what to give up

Dopo ogni scelta arriva il conto

After every choice the bill arrives

Guardo fisso avanti il filo e sono in bilico

I look straight ahead at the thread and I'm teetering

Nelle insidie di ogni cambiamento

In the pitfalls of every change

Tra le forze che da sempre mi dividono

Between the forces that have always divided me

Tradizione e tradimento

Tradition and betrayal

Did you like this lyrics translation?

tradimento — betrayal

Tradimento translates to "betrayal" or "treason". It's a strong and evocative word that immediately grabs attention, suggesting deep emotional conflict.

In the context of Niccolò Fabi's song, it appears alongside "tradizione" (tradition) as one of the "forze che da sempre mi dividono" (forces that have always divided me). This creates a powerful juxtaposition, implying the internal struggle between loyalty to the past and the potential 'betrayal' of moving forward or embracing change. It's a word that speaks to the core theme of difficult choices and their consequences.
