Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Il cielo by Renato Zero from Italian to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Quante volte
How many times
Ho guardato al cielo
I looked up at the sky
Ma il mio destino è cieco
But my destiny is blind
E non lo sa
And he doesn't know
E non c'è pietà
And there is no mercy
Per chi non prega, e si convincerà
For those who do not pray, and will be convinced
Che non è solo una macchia scura
Which is not just a dark spot
Quante volte
How many times
Avrei preso il volo
I would have taken flight
Le ha bruciate già
He's burned them already
E la presenza di chi è andato già
And the presence of those who have already gone
Rubandomi, la libertà
By stealing me, freedom
Quanti amori
How many loves
Conquistano il cielo
Conquer the sky
Perle d'oro, nell'immensità
Golden pearls, in immensity
Qualcuna cadrà
Some will fall
Qualcuna invece il tempo vincerà
Some, on the other hand, time will win
Finche avrà abbastanza stelle
As long as he has enough stars
Quanta violenza
How much violence
Sotto questo cielo
Under this sky
Un altro figlio nasce e non lo vuoi
Another child is born and you don't want it
Gli spermatozoi, l'unica forza
Sperm, the only strength
Tutto ciò che hai
Everything you have
Ma che uomo sei
What a man are you
Se non hai
If you don't have
