Below, I translated the lyrics of the song Un Tempo Piccolo by MINA from Italian to English.
These English lyric translations are not yet verified.
Diventai grande in un tempo piccolo
I became great in a small time
Mi buttai dal letto per sentirmi libero
I threw myself from the bed to feel free
Vestendomi in fretta per non fare caso
Dressing up quickly not to pay attention to
A tutto quello che avrei lasciato
To everything I would have left
Scesi per strada mi mischiai nel traffico
I went down to the street I mixed in traffic
Rotolai in salita come fossi magico
I rolled uphill as I was magical
Toccando terra rimanendo in bilico
Touching earth while remaining in the balance
Diventai un albero per oscillare
I became a tree to oscillate
Spostai lo sguardo per mirare altrove
I moved my gaze to aim elsewhere
Cercando un modo per dimenticare
Looking for a way to forget
Dipinsi l'anima su tela anonima
I painted the soul on anonymous canvas
E mescolai la vodka con acqua tonica
And mixed the vodka with tonic water
E pranzai tardi all'ora della cena
And I had lunch late at dinner time
Mi rivolsi al libro come una persona
I turned to the book as a person
Guardai le tele con aria ironica
I looked at the canvases with ironic air
E mi giocai i ricordi provando il rischio
And I played the memories by trying the risk
Di rinascere sotto le stelle
To be reborn under the stars
Ma non scordai di certo un amore folle
But I certainly did not forget a crazy love
In un tempo piccolo
In a small time
Ingannai il dolore con del vino rosso
I deceived the pain with red wine
Buttando il cuore in qualunque posto
Throwing the heart anywhere
Mi addormentai con un vecchi disco
I fell asleep with a old disc
Tra pensieri che non riferisco
Between thoughts that I don't refer
Racchiudendo i dubbi in un pasto misto
Enclosing doubts in a mixed meal
Dipinsi l'anima su tela anonima
I painted the soul on anonymous canvas
E mescolai la vodka con acqua tonica
And mixed the vodka with tonic water
Pranzai tardi all'ora della cena
I had lunch late at dinner time
Mi rivolsi al libro come una persona
I turned to the book as a person
Guardai le tele con aria ironica
I looked at the canvases with ironic air
E mi giocai i ricordi provando il rischio
And I played the memories by trying the risk
Poi di rinascere sotto le stelle
Then to be reborn under the stars
Ma non scordai di certo un amore folle
But I certainly did not forget a crazy love
In un tempo piccolo
In a small time
E mi giocai i ricordi provando il rischio
And I played the memories by trying the risk
Di rinascere sotto le stelle
To be reborn under the stars
Ma non scordai di certo un amore folle
But I certainly did not forget a crazy love
In un tempo piccolo
In a small time
