"Non son degno di te" (transl. I Am Not Worthy of You) is a 1964 Italian song composed by Franco Migliacci (lyrics) Luis Bacalov and Bruno Zambrini (music) and performed by Gianni Morandi.

Background

The song is considered a follow-up of "In ginocchio da te", of which it reprises themes and musical structure.[1] The song was launched from the victory at the 1964 Festival delle rose [it], and a few months later it won the tenth edition of Canzonissima.[2][3]

Dalida covered the song in French as "Tu n'as pas mérité", with lyrics by Pierre Saka [fr].[4] The song was also covered in Portuguese by Agnaldo Rayol as "Não Mereço Você".[5]

The song was adapted into a musicarello film with the same title, directed by Ettore Maria Fizzarotti and starring the same Morandi and his future wife Laura Efrikian.[1][2]
