(Without Shoes)
Speria da lungo sono il primo sole.
Un giorno veddetto, ma non e vero,
Amore si non ti veddo e un giorno nero.
Senza li scarpe caminero,
Senza l'amore non ci sto.
Senza li scarpe caminero,
Senza l'amore non ci sto.
Se statte ci vedde insieme in mezza il prati.
Agli fiore dalizzi l'ian taliate.
Arti col primo traino, non me sveliari,
Ma io chieto quando so pro spettare.
Senza li scarpe caminero,
Senza l'amore non ci sto.
Senza li scarpe caminero,
Senza l'amore non ci sto.
Li lettra che mi mandi, a qui sul cuore.
C'e scritte per li baciarti, ma sono parole;
Poi guardo quella nell che porta al ditto--
Amore poi stari securi non poi traddito.
Senza li scarpi caminero,
Senza l'amore non ci sto.
Senza li scarpe caminero,
Senza l'amore non ci sto.
Shining from afar is the first sunrise.
One day it will be said, but it won't be true,
That when I don't see you it will be a black day.
I walk without shoes,
But I am not without love.
I walk without shoes,
But I am not without love.
This summer I will meet you in the meadow.
All the flowers have been cut.
I'll be leaving on the first train, do not wake me,
But I will tell you when to expect me.
I walk without shoes,
But I am not without love.
I walk without shoes,
But I am not without love.
The letters that you send me are here in my heart.
They are written to be kissed, but they are just words.
Only just look at the ring you wear on your finger--
My love you can be sure that I will be true to you.
I walk without shoes,
But I am not without love.
I walk without shoes,
But I am not without love.
(By The Sea)
Facimo amore,
A cuore, a cuore,
P'nce spassa.
Sul marinaro,
Che tiro a'rezza,
Ma p'allerezza
Stong a muri.
Vicino mare
Facimo amore,
A cuore, a cuore,
P'nce spassa.
Sul marinaro,
Che tiro a'rezza,
Tu sai la brezza,
Dei nostre cuore.
We will make love,
Heart to heart,
To pass away the time.
This mariner
That pulls the oars,
But the rowing
Is killing him.
By the sea
We will make love,
Heart to heart,
To pass away the time.
This mariner
That pulls the oars,
You know the breeze
Of our hearts.
(Oh My Sun)
a beautiful breeze after a storm.
Beautiful weataher for a festa,
How beautiful a day of sunshine.
The sun is born,
How beautiful it is.
O my sun
That shines on you.
O my sun, O my sun,
That shines on you,
That shines on you.
When night falls the sun sets,
And I feel melancholy
And under your window reamin
When night falls and the sun sets.
The sun is born,
How beautiful it is.
O my sun
That shines on you.
O my sun, O my sun,
That shines on you,
That shines on you.
N'aria serena doppo na tempesta.
Pe'Ilaria fresca pare gia na festa,
Che belle cosa na iurnata é sole.
Ma natu sole
Cchiu bello ojé
O sole mio
Sta n'fronte a te
O sole, o sole mio
Sta n'fronte a te,
Sta n'fronte a te.
Quanno fa notte o sole se ne scenne,
Mme viene quasse na malincunia
Scotto a finesta toia restaria
Quanno fa notte o sole se ne scenne.
Ma natu sole
Cchiu bello ojé
O sole mio
Sta n'fronte a te
O sole, o sole mio
Sta n'fronte a te,
Sta n'fronte a te.
(Little Flower)
Only that they make me crazy.
When I look at you I ask myself if you know
That it would be more beautiful if you were with me.
Little flower, where are you going?
Why do you travel the world?
If you would only stop for a moment,
I would accompany you and you would have someone,
Someone who wants to cherish you,
And who is not afraid of love.
As you know, you might suffer
And some time you might also die.
As I am for you, as I am for you.
The color of your eyes I do not know,
But they are more beautiful than the sea,
Full of light and sunshine,
How they cry for love.
How I would like to have you near me,
To hear your voice
Again like a baby.
And to stay with you awhile outside it is raining,
And to re-live with you all my joy.
Little flower, where are you going?
Why do you travel the world?
If you would only stop for a moment,
I would accompany you and you would have someone,
Someone who wants to cherish you,
And who is not afraid of love.
as you know, you might suffer
And some time you might also die.
As I am for you, as I am for you.
As I am for you, as I am for you.
So solo che mi fa imbazzire.
Quando ti guardo me chiedo sai
Sarai piu bella, sarai con me.
Picolo fiori dove vai?
Perche vai giro per il mondo?
Se ti fermasi solo un momento.
Ti accorgiaresti che cia qualcuno,
Qualcuno che ti voglio amare
E non a paura de l'amore.
Come tu sai si poi soffiro
E qualche volta se poi anche morire?
Come io per te, come io per te.
Nel occhi tuoi non so il colore,
Ma sono belle piu grande del mare.
Pieno di lucce, pieno di sole,
Quando pianto mai per amore.
Come vorai averti vecina
Sentire la tua voce
Ancora di bambina
E stari con te mentre fuori piovi
Rivere con te tutti li mia gioa.
Picolo fiori dove vai?
Perche vai giro per il mondo?
Se ti fermasi solo un momento.
Ti accorgiaresti che cia qualcuno,
Qualcuno che ti voglio amare
E non a paura de l'amore.
come tu sai si poi soffiro
E qualche volta se poi anche morire?
Come io per te, come io per te.
Come io per te, come io per te.
(First Love)
Perche l'amore mia m'abandonate.
Quando belle lu prim'amore
Lu seconde e ciu belle ancore.
In braccia analtra per me so strete
E subito lu cuore so consulata:
Quando belle lu prim'amore,
Lu seconde e ciu belle ancore.
Mi sente gne na gata che fa li cose,
quando te li coi da li na lisciate.
Quando belle lu prim'amore,
Lu seconde e ciu belle ancore.
E faci li carrezze so dolce e dolce,
È sempre melio quelle de la juornate.
Quando belle lu prim'amore,
Lu seconde e ciu belle ancore
Mi so piate gusto di scagni, scagni,
Di mi prim'amore mi so scurdate.
Quando belle lu prim'amore,
Quelle nuove ciu belle ancore.
Although my love abandoned me.
Beautiful the first love is,
The second even better.
In the arms of another I feel a closeness,
And suddenly my heart advises:
Beautiful the first love is,
The second even better.
I feel like a cat, that makes you,
When you meet it, stroke it.
Beautiful the first love is,
The second even better.
Caressing, sweetly and gently,
Is always better than a day's work.
Beautiful the first love is,
The second even better
I've gotten used to changes, changes.
My first love I have forgotten.
Beautiful the first love is,
The new love is even better
L'astro d'argento
Placida e londa
Prospero e vento.
Sul mare luccica
L'astro d'argento
Placida e londa
Prospero e vento.
Venite all'agile
Barchetta mia
Santa Lucia, Santa Lucia.
Con questo zefiro
Cosi soave.
O come bello
Sta sulla nave,
Su passeggeri, venite via,
Santa Lucia, Santa Lucia.
A silver star,
Calm waves,
Soft wind.
A luminescent sea,
A silver star,
Calm waves,
Soft wind.
Come to the shore
My little ship, Santa Lucia, Santa Lucia.
With this breeze
So gentle,
O how beautiful
To be on the boat,
As a passenger, travelling.
Santa Lucia, Santa Lucia.
It breathes deep emotions,
Look at what is in your mind,
Do not waken from the dream.
Look at this beautiful garden,
Listen to the orange blossoms,
They are of a fine perfume,
That penetrates your heart.
And you tell me " I am leaving, goodbye!"
You are going far from this heart,
From the land of love,
You have a heart that won't return?!
But do not leave me,
This torment will not sleep.
Return to Sorrento
And let me live.
And you tell me " I am leaving, goodbye!"
You are going far from this heart,
From the land of love,
You have a heart that won't return?!
Return to Sorrento
And let me live.
Spira tantu sentimente,
Vide tu a chi tiene mente,
Ca scetato 'o faie sunna.
Guarda qua chistu giardino,
Siente sie' sti sciure arancia,
Nu profum accussi fino
Dint'o cuore se ne va.
E tu dice "Io parto addio!"
T'alluntane da stu cuore,
Da la terra de l'amore,
Tiene 'o cuore 'e nun turna?!
Ma nun mme lassa,
Nun darme stu turmiento,
Torna a Sorrento,
Famme campa.
E tu dice"Io parto addio!"
T'alluntane da stu cuore,
Da la terre de l'amore,
Tiene 'o cuore 'e nun turna?!
Torna a Sorrento,
Famme campa
