On the piazza in Ravello, it will always be summer.
On a soggy sunless October day, I couldn’t get the song Verrà l’estate out of my head.
The stirring duet from Italian pop singers Pacifico and Malika Ayane always makes me smile.
The tune celebrates the simple joys of summer, but, for me, it becomes a reason for hope in life itself.
The single Verrà l’estate is from Pacifico’s CD Dentro Ogni Casa (Inside Every House).
Verrà l’estate
sarà nel vento
nel fiato caldo dietro le persiane
There will always be the summer
it will be in the wind
the hot breath behind the blinds
Sempre ti aspetto
salvami stanco e infelice
Nell’aria la tua luce
I always wait for you
you save me from fatigue and unhappiness
your light in the air
Malika Ayane has collaborated on several songs with Pacifico.

This lush video of Pacifico and Ayane’s performance is the official release of the single from Sugar Music.
I prefer this bare bones video. The sound quality is terrible. It seems as if someone taped it at a media conference judging by all the camera flashes. But, for me, the expression on the singers’ faces conveys the pure joy of the song.
I know winter is coming to wrap me in its icy embrace but I’m not worried. . .
Verrà l’estate!
