March 9, 2011 by Spring
Filed under Eurovision Lyrics
Sognu di ste labbre
Di sta voce chjara è pura
Mai spentu ricordu di tè
Quella notte cui cun tè
Sognu, mi lamentu
U moi core, ‘n hà primura
Di a vita aspettu dumane
Invinuchjatu, guardu u mare
Spart’u mondu cun tè
Ma tu, ti ne vogli’andà
Canteraghju vittoria
Luntanu da tè, pensu sempre che
Sei intornu a mè, sognu di tè
Canteraghju, canteraghju a tè
A canzona l’o i mé
Piengu è so male
Pregu u celu fin’a more
Cui dai monti, guidi front’ a tè
Per svegliammi da stu sognu
Sè tu mori, eu dinò
English Translation
Dream
I dream of those lips
The voice, clear and pure
I still think of you
That night, there with you
I’m dreaming, but lamenting
And my heart, indifferent
To the life that awaits me tomorrow
I’m kneeling; I look at the sea
I shared the world with you
But you, you didn’t want to go
Singing of victory
Far from you, I still think that
You’re inside me, I dream of you
I will sing, sing to you
The song of you and me
I cry and I am the worse for it
I will ask the sky until I die
There among the mountains, I will confront you
To awake myself from this dream
If you die, take me

I sing myslelf.
This is one of the very best this year.
Eurovision unfortunately is not about vocal talents
If so he would have won.
Such variation and very touching.
It’s like a circus, impress crowds anyway possible and you win. Sometimes I even think it is predetermined.
I am in Moscow and I think our sing even did not decerve such a low this year. But it’s a competition with local voting after all. Nothing can be predicted.
Well I’m sure he’ll have a great carrier.
Cheers to France ))

I think that this is one of the most beautiful songs
I have ever heard. Comparable in beauty and passion
as “Per te partiro” of Andrea Bocelli. I am not
from Europe but if I could vote in Eurovision I
would have given top score to this one. It had
a stunning background presentation!! Amaury’s voice
is fantastic! Congratulations, Amaury! All the best,
from Puerto Rico…
Thanks a lot for the translation!

This is honestly one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard. He has such good presentation and his voice is flawless. I wish I lived in Europe so I could vote! He would have had all of mine!! Go France!!
