Genius English Translations
Raf - Nati Ieri (English Translation)
[Verse 1]
Born yesterday is synonymous with naivety for those who are already aged
But having come into the world twenty-four hours ago we already seem
To know instinctively why we're here
But then two whole lives would not be enough to grasp the essence
By now forgotten, giving to any cost, a cost to those hidden: “happiness.”
Being born yesterday we do not have large desires nor desires by large
Often a little useless, so many important, too many, how many?
All we need is a bit of love, a little bit of attention
In case the cares of doctors, doctors who have seen the birth of
Not only saints, artists and navigators, always aligned on two fronts
Our primary care: the anxieties, the fears of dear parents
The game has just begun; come on go anyhow
Ours will be a great journey

[Pre-Chorus 1]
You'll see us learn to keep standing
And then walk without falling anymore
You'll see us sleep but then daydream
Of flying even higher without wings and without nets

[Chorus]
Born yesterday we are, we are the future
We are prepared for a hard world
Children of this reality we believe to the core
That tomorrow is better despite everything

[Verse 2]
Volunteers do great things and the great people of the earth lack will
To truly help the other face of humanity where nature
Is less generous and we, armed only with a rose without thorns, as light as a
Mariposa defusing mines, will we know how to improve this legacy?
It would be necessary to have each goal to be pursued
Not for themselves but for everyone
That the rich is an example of altruism and nobility of spirit
That the poor can live with a dignity of being human
For convenience you think that they are useless banalities
Only try to be a disciple of us children
Masters of simplicity

[Pre-Chorus 2]
You will already see us great; will you understand us?
If for some love, you will see us suffer
But then laugh with joy and shout at a star
That the war is over and that life is beautiful

[Chorus]
Born yesterday we are, we are the future
We are prepared for a hard world
Children of this reality we believe to the core
That tomorrow is better despite everything

[Outro]
Children of this reality we believe to the core
That tomorrow is better despite everything
Being born yesterday we do not have large desires nor desires by large
Born yesterday, born yesterday
Born yesterday
The game has just begun; come on go anyhow
Ours will be a great journey
Born yesterday, born yesterday
