Il Mondo Era Vuoto Translation

English translation:

The world was empty
Filled with shadow
The light never arrived

Clara, the light in the piazza
Clara, my light, my heart
Now that I am awake
I won’t go back to shadow

I never felt myself to be lonely
Missing the essence of being alive
But that’s how it was

Clara
Clara
Clara, my light, my heart
The essence I was missing is you
Your light fills me

But she won’t love me
Not like I am
Oh Clara
She won’t love a little boy
She cannot love a little boy
God
Father

I was sleeping
I didn’t know I was alone
Alone in the dark obscurity
Not even alive
There was no Clara
But now your light fills me

But she won’t love me
Not like I am
Oh Clara
She won’t love a little boy
She cannot love a little boy

God!
Father!
Clara
Clara
Clara, my light, my heart
The essence I was missing is you
Is you

Clara
Clara
Clara, my light, my heart
The essence I was missing is you
Is you

Clara
Clara
Clara, my light, my heart
I was alone in the dark obscurity
Not even alive
Oh God, give me my Clara
Oh, father, her light

Fills me

Love Light in the Piazza!
(You also could have just put the lyrics through an online translator)

I thought about that but I figured someone had them on file or something. Thank you so much, I knew someone of it because I read a little (very little) Italian but I am working on this song for my senior recital and I wanted to really dig deep with it!
