Hi, Toscano. I know you want the Italian lyrics, but I haven't found them. At least we ought to have the English lyrics posted.
I found them at Lyrics World.

Non Dimenticar (Don't Forget)

-Artist: Nat King Cole
-peak Billboard position # 45 in 1958
-composed for the1951 Italian film "Anna" starring Silvana Magnano, Raf Vallone,
-and Vittorio Gassman
-Italian words by Michele Galdieri and Music by P.G. Redi
-English words by Shelley Dobbins


Non dimenticar means don't forget you are my darling
Don't forget to be
All you mean to me
Non dimenticar my love is like a star, my darling
Shining bright and clear
Just because you're here

Please do not forget that our lips have met
And I've held you tight, dear
Was it dreams ago my heart felt this glow?
Or only just tonight, dear?

Non dimenticar although you travel far, my darling
It's my heart you own, so I'll wait alone
Non dimenticar

Se ci separò, se ci allontanò
L'ala del destino
Non ne ho colpa, no, e mi sentiro sempre a te vicino

Non dimenticar although you travel far, my darling
It's my heart you own, so I'll wait alone
Non dimenticar


Transcribed by Robin Hood with special help on the Italian lyrics from his trusty
sidekick, Wayne.
I did find these Italian lyrics, but I can't vouch for their accuracy:

NON DIMENTICAR

Non dimenticar che t’ho voluto tanto bene
t’ho saputo amar non dimenticar
oh di questo amor un sol ricordo t’appartiene
non gettarlo ancor fuori dal tuo cuor

Se ci separò se ci allontanò
l’ala del destino
non ne ho colpa no e mi sentirò
sempre a te vicino

Non dimenticar che t’ho voluto tanto bene
forse nel mio cuor puoi trovar ancor tanto e tanto amor

Se ci separò se ci allontanò
l’ala del destino
non ne ho colpa no e mi sentirò
sempre a te vicino

Non dimenticar che t’ho voluto tanto bene
forse nel mio cuor puoi trovar ancor tanto e tanto amor
