  1. The smart one.

    But you should be more precise and write the complete sentence you need to translate.


  2. Without context I'm just shooting in the dark, but it could mean several things.

    The most common literal translation would be

    --(the) awake one (i.e. not sleeping)

    It could also be used to say "smart"/"quick"(like 'sharp/quick mind') (as Orange B said)

    --(the) smart one

    Those are just a few of the possible meanings...

  3. Literary translation " the awake one"..."sveglio " is in italian an adjetive..but we use also "aggettivi sostantivati"..so we say "lo sveglio"

    (the awoke man) " lo svelto" (the fast man)...

    After in our culture we divided all persons in two category..One are persons sleeping..other awake persons..Now one example ..You are a company  of friends 3 persons ..John is most clever..others are stupid and fun..John has best success with girls..So if I ask you " Whit whom do you go dancing ? " if you reply me " Con quello sveglio" I immediately understand that you will go together at John ...
