Il Cielo Lyrics in English by Renato Zero
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Il Cielo by Renato Zero from Italian to English.
Peccato rinunciare e andare via
It's a shame to give up and leave
Buttare all'aria tutto e andare via
To ruin everything and leave
Nessun vincitore mai
No winner ever
Ricordi ed emozioni, niente più
Memories and emotions, nothing more
In tutti i casi avrai ragione ancora tu
In any case, you'll still be right
Che ti liberi
You who set yourself free
Tu che non piangi mai
You who never cry
Tu sempre e solo tu
You, always and only you
L'artefice e il carnefice
The creator and the executioner
Io ti porto dentro me
I carry you inside me
Non mi chiedere perché
Don't ask me why
Le mie mani tremano
My hands tremble
Se mi raggiunge il tuo pensiero
If your thought reaches me
Rinnegarti non potrei
I couldn't deny you
Alba di quei giorni miei
Dawn of those days of mine
Che nessuno saprà mai
That nobody will ever know
Distinguere o comprendere
To distinguish or understand
Ripetere od eguagliare poi
To repeat or equal then
Si può sempre ritentare amica mia
We can always try again, my friend
Che sarà tutto bello è forse una bugia
That everything will be beautiful is perhaps a lie
Ma poi bisognerà crederci
But then we'll have to believe
Da quel primo tormento imparerai
From that first torment you'll learn
Proteggersi è un dovere che abbiamo verso noi
Protecting ourselves is a duty we have towards ourselves
Non arrenderci
Let's not surrender
Perché sottometterci a chi è senza scrupoli
Why submit to those who are unscrupulous?
Il cielo è degli angeli
Heaven belongs to the angels
Io ti porto dentro me
I carry you inside me
Ed è qui che resterai
And it's here that you'll stay
Tu che non hai smesso mai
You who have never stopped
Di muovere ogni mia emozione
Moving every one of my emotions
La ragione resti tu
You remain the reason
L'ideale
The ideal
La magia
The magic
E se questo non è amore
And if this isn't love
Sappi che il dolore è quello di non risvegliarmi
Know that the pain is not waking up
Accanto a te
Next to you
Sei dentro me
You're inside me
Io ti porto dentro me
I carry you inside me
In qualunque posto andrai
Wherever you go
A chiunque ti offrirai
To whoever you offer yourself
Tu digli che ti avrò nel cuore e che ti penserò
You tell them I'll have you in my heart and I'll think of you

Did you like this lyrics translation?
carnefice — executioner
Carnefice translates to "executioner" or "tormentor". It's a strong, dramatic word not commonly found in everyday conversation or typical love songs.
In "Il cielo", Renato Zero uses this word to describe the complex and intense nature of a significant person in his life. He sings, "L'artefice e il carnefice" (The architect and the executioner), suggesting this person is both the creator of his joy and the source of his pain, highlighting a powerful, almost contradictory influence on his emotions.
