How lucky was that I should fall upon your lap?

How amazing you are too

If I had my way

Every day I'd always choose you

You didn't have to look

You didn't have to save me

I love you my Nonna

Ti voglio bene.

Right or wrong

Please stand strong,

because in spite of my age

I'm still your baby

I love you the world

My Nonna

Ti voglio bene.

Key Words:

Nonna - Grandma In Italian

Ti voglio bene - The way you say I love you to members of your family in Italian. NOT to be confused with Ti amo which also means I love you, but Ti amo should be used to express romantic love to someone.
