Buon Viaggio Lyrics in English Ultimo

Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Buon Viaggio by Ultimo from Italian to English.
Have a good trip and come back only if you have an excuse
Travel the world, it doesn't matter how long it takes
Have a good trip and don't be afraid, I will be honest
I will be the wind that shakes the anxiety off you
Have a good trip and throw away those cigarettes
Because you deserve to live forever
And run fast among the streetlights when it's evening
Have a good trip and come back when it's spring
I don't know if you'll come back tomorrow
But I know that I left inside her
Only a bit of my bitter misunderstanding
Also a bit of laughter with your scent
Na, ni na, ni na, ni na
Hm, hm hm hm, hm
Have a good trip and never hold a grudge
I wait to tell you I miss you for two hours
And take care of your eyes today since it's a holiday
Then come back because I can't do without
Have a good trip and keep your garden safe
And among the hedges leave a place for a pine tree
And in a hundred years it will be strong like the dream
Of you coming back and saying: my love, good morning
Hm
I don't know if you'll come back tomorrow
But I know that I left inside her
Only a bit of my bitter misunderstanding
Maybe also a bit of laughter with your scent
Na, ni na, ni na, ni na
Hm, hm hm hm, hm

SONG MEANING

"Buon Viaggio" feels like a tender postcard slipped into a suitcase. Ultimo sings to someone he loves, urging them to explore the world, shake off their anxieties, and even toss away bad habits like cigarettes. His words are equal parts blessing and gentle instruction: run beneath street-lights, take care of your garden, keep your eyes bright because today is a holiday. Although he worries they may never come back, he promises to be the supportive wind at their back and keeps a space in his heart (and in the garden) ready for their return.

Beneath the warm wish of “have a good journey,” there is a bittersweet undercurrent. The narrator admits he has left this traveler with a mix of “bitter misunderstanding” and shared laughter, showing how every relationship carries both shadows and light. Hope ultimately triumphs: he imagines a century-old pine standing tall, symbolizing the strength of a dream in which the traveler finally comes home and greets him with a simple, joyous “good morning.” The song is a heartfelt reminder that real love lets go, supports from afar, and always keeps the porch-light on for the day of return.
