Tell Her

Amália Rodrigues

Dicitencello Vuie

Dicitencello
a 'sta cumpagna vosta
ch'aggio perduto 'o suonno
e 'a fantasia
ca 'a penzo sempe
che e' tutta 'a vita mia
I'nce 'o vvulesse dicere
ma nun nce 'o ssaccio di'

'A voglio bbene
'a voglio bbene assaie
dicitencello vuie
ca nun m''a scordo maie
E' 'na passiona
cchiu' forte 'e 'na catena
ca me turmenta l'anema
e nun me fa campa'

Dicitencello
ch'e' 'na rosa 'e maggio
ch'e' assaie cchiu' bella
'e 'na jurnata 'e sole
d' 'a vocca soia
cchiu' fresca d' 'e vviole
I' gia' vulesse sentere
ch'e' nnamurata 'e me!

'A voglio bbene
'a voglio bbene assaie
dicitencello vuie
ca nun m''a scordo maie
E' 'na passiona
cchiu' forte 'e 'na catena
ca me turmenta l'anema
e nun me fa campa'

'Na lacrema lucente v'e' caduta
diciteme 'nu po a che penzate?
Cu' st'uocchie doce
vuie sola guardate
Leva'mmece 'sta maschera
dicimmo 'a verita'!...

Suonno gentile
suspiro mio carnale
te cerco comm'all'aria
te voglio pe' campa'!

Tell Her

Tell her
about this friend of yours
that I lost my sleep
and my imagination
that I always think
that she's my whole life
I want to tell her
but I don't know how

I love her
I love her so much
tell her
that I'll never forget her
It's a passion
stronger than a chain
that torments my soul
and doesn't let me live

Tell her
that she's a May rose
that she's much more beautiful
than a sunny day
her lips
fresher than violets
I already want to hear
that she's in love with me!

I love her
I love her so much
tell her
that I'll never forget her
It's a passion
stronger than a chain
that torments my soul
and doesn't let me live

A shining tear has fallen
tell me what you think about it?
With those sweet eyes
you only look at her
Take off this mask
let's tell the truth!...

Gentle sleep
carnal sigh of mine
I search for you like air
I want you to live!
