No! Mamma, No! Lyrics in English by Renato Zero
Below, I translated the lyrics of the song No! Mamma, No! by Renato Zero from Italian to English.
No, mamma, no
No, mom, no
Non mi puoi deludere, mamma
You can't disappoint me, mom
Solo non ci sto
I can't be alone
Sono troppo fragile, mamma
I'm too fragile, mom
No, mamma, no
No, mom, no
Solo non ci sto
I can't be alone
Odio le corsie
I hate the wards
E le suore pallide, mamma
And the pale nuns, mom
Cliniche e comforts e le mani candide, mamma
Clinics and comforts and the spotless hands, mom
No, mamma, no
No, mom, no
Solo non ci sto
I can't be alone
Tutta colpa tua
It's all your fault
Per te era tutto favole
For you it was all fairy tales
Solo colpa tua
Only your fault
Il latte tuo era sterile
Your milk was sterile
Sempre colpa tua
Always your fault
Se io non sono come vuoi
If I'm not what you want
Ho paura sai
I'm scared, you know
Delle crisi isteriche, mamma
Of the hysterical fits, mom
Temo il buio e poi
I fear the dark and then
Le correnti gelide, mamma
The icy drafts, mom
No, mamma, no
No, mom, no
Solo non ci sto
I can't be alone
Non ricordi più
You don't remember anymore
La notte mi stringevi a te
At night you held me tight
Non ricordi più
You don't remember anymore
La notte mi svegliavi, tu
At night you woke me up, you
Sempre colpa tua
Always your fault
Se io non sono come vuoi
If I'm not what you want
No, mamma, no
No, mom, no
Non mi puoi deludere mamma
You can't disappoint me, mom
Tremo quando tu
I tremble when you
Non mi puoi proteggere, mamma
Can't protect me, mom
No, mamma, no
No, mom, no
Solo non ci sto
I can't be alone
No, mamma, no
No, mom, no
È solamente colpa tua
It's only your fault
No, mamma no
No, mom, no
È solamente colpa tua
It's only your fault
No, mamma, no
No, mom, no
È solamente colpa tua
It's only your fault
No, mamma, no
No, mom, no
È solamente colpa tua
It's only your fault
No, mamma, no
No, mom, no
È solamente colpa tua
It's only your fault

Did you like this lyrics translation?
candide — pure / innocent / naive
Candide literally translates to "pure" or "innocent," but it can also mean "naive" or "gullible." It's a less common word than its synonyms, making it stand out.
In "No! Mamma, no!", Renato Zero uses it to describe "le mani candide" (the pure hands) of the nuns in the clinic. This word choice adds a layer of irony, as the singer feels betrayed and deluded by his mother and the sterile environment, contrasting with the supposed purity of the hands caring for him.
