Translation of the song lyrics Insieme - Mina

Insieme (original)

Io non ti conosco, io non so chi sei
So che hai cancellato con un gesto i sogni miei
Sono nata ieri nei pensieri tuoi
Eppure adesso siamo insieme
Non ti chiedo, sai, quanto resterai
Dura un giorno la mia vita
Io saprò che l’ho vissuta
Anche solo un giorno
Ma l’avrò fermata insieme a te
A te che ormai sei mio
Tu, l’amore ed io, insieme, insieme
Io ti amo e ti amerò finché lo vuoi
Anche sempre, se tu lo vorrai
Insieme, insieme, insieme a te
Tu, l’amore ed io, insieme, insieme
Io non ti conosco, io non so chi sei
So che hai cancellato con un gesto i sogni miei
Sono nata ieri nei pensieri tuoi
Eppure adesso siamo insieme
Non ti chiedo, sai, quanto resterai
Dura un giorno la mia vita
Io saprò che l’ho vissuta
Anche solo un giorno
Ma l’avrò fermata insieme a te
A te che ormai sei mio
Tu, l’amore ed io, insieme, insieme
Tu, l’amore ed io, insieme, insieme…

Insieme (translation)

I do not know you—the shadow behind the glass,
Yet I have seen your hand sweep clean my garden of dreams,
I was conceived but yesterday, a thought adrift in your mind,
And yet, behold—we are two branches twined this hour,
I will not ask, beloved, how long you abide in my dawn,
My life—an hourglass emptied in a single sun’s ascent,
Still, I shall know I drained that cup to its golden lees,
If all I am is this brief, trembling day,
Still, I would halt the clock’s stern wheel beside you,
With you, whom time has finally named as mine,
You—the word ‘love’ uttered, and I—together, together,
I love you; my vow endures as long as your will commands,
Forever—even eternity, if you so decree,
Together, side by side in the hush of now,
You—the word ‘love’ uttered, and I—together, together,
I do not know you—the shadow behind the glass,
Yet I have seen your hand sweep clean my garden of dreams,
I was conceived but yesterday, a thought adrift in your mind,
And yet, behold—we are two branches twined this hour,
I will not ask, beloved, how long you abide in my dawn,
My life—an hourglass emptied in a single sun’s ascent,
Still, I shall know I drained that cup to its golden lees,
If all I am is this brief, trembling day,
Still, I would halt the clock’s stern wheel beside you,
With you, whom time has finally named as mine,
You—the word ‘love’ uttered, and I—together, together,
You—the word ‘love’ uttered, and I—together, together…
