Bastava sol che mi sfiorassi tu
Just a touch from you was enough
Per sentir vibrar tutto in me
To feel everything within me vibrate
Forse svanirà la tua immagine
Perhaps your image will fade away
Ma non scorderò le tue mani
But I won’t forget your hands
Le rivedo che m'accarezzano
I see them again, caressing me
Quelle tue adorate mani
Those beloved hands of yours
Se ripenso a te provo un palpito
When I think of you, I feel a flutter
Che mi fa tremar come allora
That makes me tremble just like before
Nasce ancora in me, dolce, un brivido
A sweet shiver is born anew in me
Al ricordo delle tue mani
At the memory of your hands
Sapevi consolarmi nel dolore
You knew how to comfort me in pain
Accarezzandomi con amor
By caressing me with love
Bastava sol che mi sfiorassi tu
It was enough just for you to brush against me
Per sentir vibrar tutto in me
To feel everything vibrating within me
Ma non ci sei più, vivo ancor di te
But you're no longer here, I still live for you
Al ricordo delle tue mani
In the memory of your hands
Forse svanirà la tua immagine
Perhaps your image will fade away
Ma non scorderò le tue mani
But I will never forget your hands
Sapevi consolarmi nel dolor
You knew how to comfort me in sorrow
Accarezzandomi con amor
By caressing me with love
Bastava sol che mi sfiorassi tu
All I needed was your touch,
Per sentir vibrar tutto in me
To feel everything vibrating within me.
Ma non ci sei più, vivo ancor di te
But you are no longer here, I still live for you.
Al ricordo delle tue mani
In the memory of your hands.
Forse svanirà la tua immagine
Perhaps your image will fade away,
Ma non scorderò le tue mani
But I will never forget your hands.
