Se Si Potesse Non Morire

Modà Modà

Imagining a World Beyond Mortality

Modà's song "Se Si Potesse Non Morire" is a poetic exploration of life's fleeting beauty and the human desire to transcend mortality. The lyrics reflect on the simple yet profound moments that often go unnoticed in the rush of daily life. The singer wishes for more time to appreciate the warmth of the sun, the simplicity of rain, and the act of making love. This longing for time extends to a desire to travel and experience the world more deeply, symbolized by the metaphor of turning one's heart into salt to cover every inch of the sea.

The song delves into a series of imaginative scenarios where the impossible becomes possible. The idea of flying with a single leap, disappearing in an embrace, and eating kisses to reduce hunger are whimsical yet poignant metaphors for a world filled with more love and less suffering. The recurring theme of wishing for immortality—"se si potesse non morire"—is a powerful expression of the human fear of death and the longing for eternal life. The lyrics also touch on the desire to see stars during the day, to be reborn every month, and to experience the unconditional love of parents repeatedly, highlighting a yearning for perpetual comfort and security.

The song also contemplates the possibility of restoring faith to those who have lost it and communicating with animals, suggesting a world where empathy and understanding are paramount. The idea of walking towards the sky with closed eyes, confident in never ceasing to breathe, symbolizes a profound trust in the continuity of existence. Through these vivid and imaginative scenarios, Modà invites listeners to dream of a world where the boundaries of reality are expanded, and the essence of life is cherished more deeply.
