lyrics, meaning and the best phrases to post on social media of Venditti’s song

It is the night par excellence, the one that adults have not yet forgotten (and many still dream about in their worst nightmares). And the night before exams, the one that for thousands of students precedes the first test of the 2024 Maturity. Anxieties, fears, legitimate agitation: there are those who will pass blank, those – a few – will pass calm because they are calm about what they have studied. And there are those who will console themselves with Antonello Venditti’s song, which has become a true hymn to this delicate moment of transition in everyone’s life. Here are the lyrics and meaning of the song that has become cult.

The text of Night before the exams

I remember, four guys with guitars
And a piano on his shoulder
Like pines of Rome, life does not break them
This night is still ours
But how do secretaries with glasses get married to lawyers?

Six o’clock bombs don’t hurt,
It’s just the day that dies, it’s just the day that dies

The exams are close
And you’re too far from my room
Your father looks like Dante and your brother Ariosto
Tonight in the usual place, the moon seems strange
Maybe it’s because I haven’t seen you for a week

Maturity, I wish I had gotten you sooner
My hands on your breasts
Your mystery is thick
Your sin is as original as your American trousers
Please don’t stop my hands
On your tense thighs closed like churches
When you want to confess

Night before exams, police night
Of course you took someone away
Mom and dad’s night with the bottle in hand
Grandfather’s night at the window
But this night is still ours

Night of young actors, cold pizzas and trousers
Night of dreams, cups and champions
Night of tears and prayers

Mathematics will never be my profession
And planes fly overhead between New York and Moscow
But this night is still ours
Claudia don’t tremble
I can’t hurt you
If love is love

The lights come on here on stage
But how many friends around
It makes me want to sing
Maybe changed, certainly a little different
But still with the desire to change
If love is love, if love is love
If love is love, if love is love
If love is love

The meaning of “Night before exams”

“Night before exams” is a 1984 song by Antonello Venditti, which tells of the Roman summer of his maturity in the 1960s. The wait for the first test “collides” with Claudia, the girl he falls in love with. From “her father who looks like Dante and her brother Ariosto” to “six o’clock bombs don’t hurt”, what Venditti experienced was a special moment. In a scenario that changes around him and all the kids. “Planes fly overhead between New York and Moscow, but this night is still ours.”
