    Question The Prayer-andrea Bocelli

    I need a translation of this for my friend, who wants to have it copied as a gift for her Italian fiance. She has changed some words in the lyrics to reflect their relationship, so if you could help that would be great! Thanks

    We pray you'll be our eyes
    And watch us where we go
    Help us to be wise
    In times when we don't know
    Let this be our prayer
    As we go our way
    Lead us to a place
    Guide us with your Grace
    To a place where we'll be safe

    We pray we'll find your light
    And hold it in our hearts
    When stars go out each night
    Remind us where you are
    Let this be our prayer
    When shadows fill our day
    Lead us to a place
    Guide us with your Grace
    To a place so we'll be safe

    We dream of a world with no more violence
    A world of justice and of hope
    A world where pain and sorrow will be ended
    And every heart that's broken will be mended
    And we'll remember we're all God's children
    Reaching out to touch you, reaching to the sky
    We ask that life be kind
    Please watch us from above
    We hope each soul will find
    Another soul to love

    Let this be our prayer
    Just like every child
    Needs to find a place
    Guide us with your grace
    Give us faith so we'll be safe

    The faith
    You've lit deep inside our hearts
    We know will save us

    Ci vorrebbe un italiano, ma nel frattempo, ecco la mia prova:
    An Italian would be of much help, but in the meanwhile, here's my try:

    P.S. Dove sei adesso, Atars?


    La preghiera

    We pray you'll be our eyes
    Preghiamo che tu sia la nostra vista
    And watch us where we go
    E ci vegli ovunque andiamo
    Help us to be wise
    Aiutaci ad essere saggi
    In times when we don't know
    Quando non sappiamo cosa fare
    Let this be our prayer
    Che questa sia la nostra preghiera
    As we go our way
    Quando ce ne andiamo
    Lead us to a place
    Mettici al riparo
    Guide us with your Grace
    Guidaci con la tua Grazia
    To a place where we'll be safe
    Dove in salvo noi saremo

    We pray we'll find your light
    Preghiamo perche' troviamo la tua luce
    And hold it in our hearts
    E la guardiamo nelle nostre anime (non mi sembra affatto corretto)
    When stars go out each night
    Quando le stelle spuntano ogni notte
    Remind us where you are
    Ricordaci dove sei
    Let this be our prayer
    Che questa sia la nostra preghiera
    When shadows fill our day
    Quando le ombre riempiono il nostro giorno
    Lead us to a place
    Mettici al riparo
    Guide us with your Grace
    Guidaci con la tua Grazia
    To a place where we'll be safe
    Dove in salvo noi saremo

    We dream of a world with no more violence
    Sogniamo un mondo senza piu' violenza
    A world of justice and of hope
    Un mondo di giustizia e di speranza
    A world where pain and sorrow will be ended
    Un mondo dove il dolore e la tristezza finiranno
    And every heart that's broken will be mended
    Ed ogni cuore infranto sara' guarito
    And we'll remember we're all God's children
    E ci ricorderemo che tutti siamo figli di Dio
    Reaching out to touch you, reaching to the sky
    Stendendoci per toccarti, arrivando al cielo
    We ask that life be kind
    Chiediamo che la vita sia buona
    Please watch us from above
    Ti prego, vegliaci da lassu'
    We hope each soul will find
    Speriamo che ogni anima trovi
    Another soul to love
    Un'altra anima per amare.

    Let this be our prayer
    Che questa sia la nostra preghiera
    Just like every child
    Come ogni bambino
    Needs to find a place
    Ha bisogno di trovare un rifugio
    Guide us with your grace
    Guidaci con la tua Grazia
    Give us faith so we'll be safe
    Dacci fede per essere salvi

    The faith
    La fede
    You've lit deep inside our hearts
    Che hai acceso dentro le nostre anime
    We know will save us
    Sappiamo che ci salvera'.
