Se Telefonando, sung by Mina was played in the eight episode of Musitaly: Telephone & Rock Star System.
Se Telefonando which we can translate as If I called you, was released in 1966.
The song describes the end of a short love story and a woman that would call a man telling him:
If by calling you I could say goodbye for good
I would call you
If I saw you again making sure you didn’t suffer
I would see you again
If looking into your eyes I could tell you it’s enough
I would look at you
But, Mina says, I don’t know how to explain to you that our newborn love is already over.
The music was composed, orchestrated and directed by Ennio Morricone.

Mina – Se Telefonando [Original Version]
Lo stupore della notte
Spalancata sul mar
Ci sorprese che eravamo sconosciuti
Io e te
Poi nel buio le tue mani
D’improvviso, sulle mie
È cresciuto troppo in fretta
Questo nostro amor
Se telefonando
Io potessi dirti addio
Ti chiamerei
Se io rivedendoti
Fossi certa che non soffri
Ti rivedrei
Se guardandoti negli occhi
Sapessi dirti basta
Ti guarderei
Ma non so spiegarti
Che il nostro amore appena nato
È già finito
Se telefonando
Io volessi dirti addio
Ti chiamerei
Se io rivedendoti
Fossi certa che non soffri
Ti rivedrei
Se guardandoti negli occhi
Sapessi dirti basta
Ti guarderei
Ma non so spiegarti
Che il nostro amore appena nato
È già finito
Mina – Se Telefonando [English Translation]
The astonishment of the night
opened on the sea
surprised us when we were unknown.
You and me.
Then in the darkness your hands
suddenly on my hands,
Is rised up too fast
our love.
If calling you
I could say you “goodbye”
I would call you.
If seeing you again
I would be sure that you are not suffering,
I would see you again.
If looking in your eyes
I could say you “enough”
I would look at .
But I can’t explain to you
that our just born love
is already over.
If calling you
I would say you “goodbye”
I would call you.
If seeing you again
I would be sure that you are not suffering,
I would see you again.
If looking in your eyes
I could say you “enough”
I would look at you.
But I can’t explain to you
that our just born love
is already over.
