Per i tuoi larghi occhi [English translation]

For your wide eyes

For your wide light eyes

That never cry

That never cry

And because you gave me

Such a brief goodbye

Because behind those eyes

Beats a heart as cold as snow

I tell you that the memory

That you'll leave in me

Will never be held tight to my heart

Because of love

Don't think it will because

All I remember of you

Of those bitter moments

Are your wide light eyes

Your wide eyes

Remained so distant

Even when I dreamed

Even while I loved you

And if you'll come back

I will love you as I always did

As a beautiful and useless dream

Forgotten in the morning

But your wide eyes

Your wide clear eyes

Even if you won't come

I'll never forget them
