"I giorni dell'arcobaleno" (English translation: "The Days Of The Rainbow") was the Italian entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1972, performed in Italian by Nicola di Bari.
The song is a nostalgic ballad, with di Bari singing to a woman about her childhood, which she gave up by taking a lover at a very young age, which made her appear "cool" before her more innocent peers; and while the event that changed her life, being a passage into adulthood, did also make her a self-assured young woman, she did in fact forsake what was - or could have been - "the best time" of her life.
The song was performed twelfth on the night (following Austria's Milestones with Falter im Wind and preceding Yugoslavia's Tereza with Muzika I Ti). At the close of voting, it had received 92 points, placing 6th in a field of 18.
It was succeeded as Italian representative at the 1973 Contest by Massimo Ranieri with "Chi sarà".
