Paroles et traduction Peppino di Capri - Auguri

Auguri

Di: Depsa/Jodice/Di Francia
Incominciò così, mi chiesero "Che fai,
Vieni con noi stasera?"
E poi quanta allegria per festeggiare te
Che avevi un anno in più.
Qualcuno fra di noi ti corteggiava già,
Io stavo li impacciato,
Ti diedi il mio regalo e poi ti dissi piano
"Auguri"
A volte sai com'è, resta qualcosa in più
Di un semplice ricordo;
Volevo farlo io, telefonasti tu:
"Usciamo, se ti va"
E fra la gente poi, innamorati già
Scambiammo una promessa.
Qualcuno ci sentì, ridendo disse poi:
"Auguri"
Che pazzi, amore mio, a crederci così,
Testardi ed incoscienti.
Confondersi con chi non ha sbagliato mai:
Un'illusione in più...
E senza drammi poi accorgersi che ormai
Finiva il grande amore,
Dicesti: "Vado via, se non ti vedo più
Auguri..."
Ma che ci fai tu qui? Sai che a momenti io
Non ti riconoscevo...
Se puoi fermati un po' taccontami di te
Da quella sera in poi.
Ma sì, meglio così, hai fatto bene tu
Con lui sarai felice.
Ed io stupido che... stavo per dirti che...
...

Congratulations

It started like this; they asked me: "What are you doing?
Are you coming out with us tonight?"
And then what fun it was to celebrate your birthday
As you turned one year older.
Some of us were already courting you,
I was just standing there feeling awkward,
I gave you my present and whispered,
"Congratulations."
Sometimes, you know how it is, there's something more
To a simple memory;
I wanted to call you, but you called me first:
"Let's go out, if you're up for it."
And among the people, we fell in love
And made a promise to each other.
Someone overheard us and said with a laugh,
"Congratulations."
How crazy we were, my love, to believe it so much,
So headstrong and reckless.
To get confused with someone who had never made a mistake:
Just another illusion...
And without any drama, we came to realize that our time was up
The great love was over.
You said: "I'm leaving. If I don't see you again,
Congratulations..."
But what are you doing here? Do you know that in just a moment,
I would not have recognized you...
If you can, stay a little while and tell me about yourself
Since that night.
Oh yes, it's better this way. You did the right thing.
You'll be happy with him.
And I, like an idiot... was about to tell you that...
