"Piove" by Jovanotti - English translation


It’s raining! Feel how it is raining!
My God, how it is raining!
Feel the way it falls down!

It’s raining! Feel how it is raining!
My God, how it is raining!
Feel the way it falls down!

Did you see how it is raining?
Feel the way it falls down!

And you were saying it wouldn’t rain ever again!
That from now you won’t ever fall in love again!
And now look at you – all wet!

And it’s raining! My God, how it is raining
On your head and the air freshens up
And it will rain until the soil is full again

And sooner or later it will brighten up

It’s raining!
Feel how it is raining!
My God, how it is raining!
Feel the way it falls down!

It’s raining!
Feel how it is raining!
My God, how it is raining!
Feel the way it falls down!

Hear the raindrops hitting the roof!
Hear the sound, twisting in your bed!
It will blossom* again, it’s already starting!

Now, you hear that it's raining and the wheat is getting better.
And you grow up and become strong
And those leaves that looked dead to you
Repopulate the branches one more time, this
Is the spring knocking at the door

And it's raining! My God, how it is raining!
And then the sun will return to host a party for us all!
Feel (it)! Feel how it is raining!
Feel the way it rains on your head!

It’s raining!
Feel how it is raining!
My God, how it is raining!
Feel the way it falls down!
It’s raining!
Feel how it is raining!
My God, how it is raining!
Feel the way it falls down!
It’s raining!
Feel how it is raining!
My God, how it is raining!
Feel the way it falls down!
It’s raining!
Feel how it is raining!
My God, how it is raining!
Feel the way it falls down!

And you thought that your little plants
Dried up and didn’t grow anymore


You’ve waited for a while
But feel how it’s raining on your head! Feel the way it comes down!

Weren’t you the one who resigned
And said that you’ll never fall in love again?

Sometimes the ground must be watered with tears (instead)
But then you’ll see the rain will come back!

It’s raining!
Feel how it is raining!
My God, how it is raining!
Feel the way it falls down!
It’s raining!
Feel how it is raining!
My God, how it is raining!
Feel the way it falls down!
It’s raining!
Feel how it is raining!
My God, how it is raining!
Feel the way it falls down!
It’s raining!
Feel how it is raining!
My God, how it is raining!
Feel the way it falls down!

Hai visto che piove?Did you see how it is raining?
Senti come viene giù!Feel the way it falls down!






Tu che dicevi che non pioveva più!And you were saying it wouldn’t rain ever again!
Che ormai non ti sarest mai più inamorata!That from now you won’t ever fall in love again!
E adesso guardati sei tutta bagnata!And now look at you – all wet!






E piove! Madonna, come pioveAnd it’s raining! My God, how it is raining
Sulla tua testa e l’aria si rinfrescaOn your head and the air freshens up
E pioverà fin quando la terra non sara di nuovo pienàAnd it will rain until the soil is full again
E prima o poi si rasserena!And sooner or later it will brighten up

Senti le gocce che battono sul tetto!Hear the raindrops hitting the roof!
Senti il rumore girandoti nel letto!Hear the sound (while you are) twisting in your bed!
Rinascerà sta già nascendo ora!It will blossom again, it's already starting






Senti che piove e il grano si matura,Now, you hear that it's raining and the wheat is getting better.
E tu diventi grande e ti fai forte,And you grow up and become strong
E quelle foglie che ti sembravan morte,And those leaves that looked dead to you
Riopoploano I rami un’altra volta questaRepopulate the branches one more time, this
È la primavera che bussa alla porta!Is the spring knocking at the door






E piove! Madonna come piove!And it's raining! My God, how it is raining!
Prima che il sole ritorni a farci festa!And then the sun will return to host a party for us all!

Senti le gocce battere sulla testa!Feel the way it rains on your head!

Tu che credevi che oramai le tue piantineAnd you thought that your little plants
Si eran seccate e non sarebbero cresciute più!Dried up and didn’t grow anymore






Hai aspettato un po’, ma senti come piove sulla tua testa! You’ve waited for a while, but feel how it’s raining on your head!
Senti come viene giù!Feel the way it comes down!






Non eri tu che ormai ti eri rassegnataWeren’t you the one who resigned
E che dicevi che non ti saresti più inamorata?And said that you’ll never fall in love again?






La terra a volte va innaffiata con il pianto,Sometimes the ground must be watered with tears (instead)
Ma poi vedrai la pioggia tornerà!But then you’ll see the rain will come back!






Piove!It's raining!
Senti come piove!Feel how it is raining!
Madonna, come piove!My God, how it is raining!
Senti come viene giù!Feel the way it falls down!

"Piove" by Jovanotti - Italian lyrics

Piove! Senti come piove!
Madonna, come piove!
Senti come viene giù!

Piove! Senti come piove!
Madonna, come piove!
Senti come viene giù!

Hai visto che piove?
Senti come viene giù!

Tu che dicevi che non pioveva più!

Che ormai non ti sarest mai più inamorata!

E adesso guardati sei tutta bagnata!

E piove! Madonna, come piove
Sulla tua testa e l’aria si rinfresca
E pioverà fin quando la terra non sara di nuovo pienà
E prima o poi si rasserena!

Piove!
Senti come piove!
Madonna, come piove!
Senti come viene giù!

Piove!
Senti come piove!
Madonna, come piove!
Senti come viene giù!

Senti le gocce che battono sul tetto!
Senti il rumore girandoti nel letto!
Rinascerà sta già nascendo ora!

Senti che piove e il grano si matura,

E tu diventi grande e ti fai forte,
E quelle foglie che ti sembravan morte,
Riopoploano I rami un’altra volta questa

È la primavera che bussa alla porta!

E piove! Madonna come piove
Prima che il sole ritorni a farci festa!

Senti! Senti come piove!
Senti le gocce battere sullta testa!

Piove!
Senti come piove!
Madonna come piove!
Senti come viene giù!
Piove!
Senti come piove!
Madonna come piove!
Senti come viene giù!
Piove!
Senti come piove!
Madonna come piove!
Senti come viene giù!
Piove!
Senti come piove!
Madonna come piove!
Senti come viene giù!

Tu che credevi che oramai le tue piantine
Si eran seccate e non sarebbero cresciute più!

Hai aspettato un po’, ma senti come piove
Sulla tua testa!
Senti come viene giù!

Non eri tu che ormai ti eri rassegnata
E che dicevi che non ti saresti più inamorata?

La terra a volte va innaffiata con il pianto,
Ma poi vedrai la pioggia tornerà!



Piove!
Senti come piove!
Madonna come piove!
Senti come viene giù!
Piove!
Senti come piove!
Madonna come piove!
Senti come viene giù!
Piove!
Senti come piove!
Madonna come piove!
Senti come viene giù!
Piove!
Senti come piove!
Madonna come piove!
Senti come viene giù!
