Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Una Merenda Di Fragole by Renato Zero from Italian to English.
E le gambe non le sento, più
And I don't feel my legs anymore
Avrei voglia di fuggire, da qui
I'd like to escape from here
Di trovare un posto
To find a place
Dove vivere e morire
Where to live and die
Aiutami, aiutami
Help me, help me
Una sedia a ruote, ed io
A wheelchair, and I
Porto a spasso il dramma mio
Carry my drama around
Io diverso non sarei
I wouldn't be different
Se non se ne accorgesse lei
If she didn't notice it
Lei non può restare qua
She can't stay here
Sposerebbe la pietà
She would marry pity
Passerebbe i giorni suoi
She would spend her days
Dietro a un vecchio nato mai
Behind an old man never truly born
Occhi, fanno finta di vedere
Eyes, they pretend to see
Mani, fanno finta di toccare
Hands, they pretend to touch
Labbra, buone solo per tacere
Lips, good only for being silent
Giusto, giusto
Right, right
Vado, proprio come un relitto, vado
I go, just like a wreck, I go
Pago, un delitto mai commesso
I pay for a crime never committed
Amo, e non so se ne ho il diritto
I love, and I don't know if I have the right
Giusto, giusto
Right, right
Io lo so la perderò
I know I'll lose her
Per la forza che non ho
For the strength I don't have
Quando avrò le mani vuote
When I have empty hands
Tornerò su questa sedia a ruote
I'll return to this wheelchair
