Tu vestita di fiori
You dressed in flowers
O di fari in città
Or in city lights
Con la nebbia o i colori
With fog or colors
Cogliere le rose a piedi nudi e poi
Picking roses barefoot and then
Con la sciarpa stretta al collo bianca come mai
With the scarf tight around your neck, white like never before
Ma...
But...
Eri bella
You were beautiful
Bella
Beautiful
Comunque bella
Still beautiful
Quando l'arcobaleno
When the rainbow
Era in fondo ai tuoi occhi
It was deep in your eyes
Quando sotto al tuo seno
When beneath your bosom
L'ira avvelenava il cuore tuo perché
Anger poisoned your heart because
Tu vedevi un'altra donna avvicinarsi a me
You saw another woman approaching me
Prima ancora che io capissi e riscegliessi te
Before I even understood and chose you again
Tu...
You...
Eri bella
Were beautiful
Bella
Beautiful
Comunque bella
Still beautiful
Anche quando un mattino tornasti vestita di pioggia
Even when one morning you returned dressed in rain
Con lo sguardo stravolto da una notte d'amore
With a gaze altered by a night of love
"Siediti qui non ti chiedo perdono perché tu sei un uomo"
"Sit here, I won't ask for forgiveness because you are a man"
Coi capelli bagnati "so che capirai"
With wet hair, "I know you will understand"
Con quei segni sul viso "mi spiace da morire sai"
With those marks on your face, "I'm so sorry, you know"
Coi tuoi occhi arrossati
With your reddened eyes
Mentre tu mentivi e mi dicevi che
While you were lying and telling me that
Ancora più di prima tu amavi me
Even more than before, you loved me
Tu...
You...
Eri bella
You were beautiful
Bella
Beautiful
Comunque bella
Anyway, beautiful
