Mio caro amore,
My dear love,
oggi lunedì 26 Ottobre,
today is Monday, October 26th,
è autunno più che mai.
it's autumn more than ever.
Fa tanto freddo
It's so cold
e piove che non sai,
and it rains like you wouldn't believe,
un mese è andato già
a month has already passed
da quando non ci sei.
since you’ve been away.
Giorno per giorno ti leggo
Day by day, I read you,
ma non mi basta mai,
but it's never enough for me,
io vivo ma
I live but
mi manchi tu,
I miss you,
fammi sapere al più presto
let me know as soon as you can
quando ritornerai
when you'll be back
e come stai laggiù
and how you’re doing down there
senza di me.
without me.
Anche domani, sai
Even tomorrow, you know
ti scriverò,
I'll write to you,
tu pensami, se puoi,
think of me, if you can,
a presto caro, ciao.
see you soon, dear, bye.
Ciao.
Bye.
