Stride La Vampa

The Flames Are Roaring

Stride La Vampa

The flames are roaring!Stride la vampa!
The drowsy crowdLa folla indormita
Runs to that fireCorre a quel foco
Happy in appearanceLieta in sembianza

Shouts of joyUrli di gioia
Echo aroundIntorno echeggiano
Surrounded by cheersCinta di shgerri
A woman advancesDonna s'avanza

Sinister shinesSinistra splende
On the horrible facesSui volti orribilli
The gloomy flameLa tetra fiamma
That rises to the skyChe s'alza al ciel

The flames are roaring!Stride la vampa!
The victim arrivesGiunge la vittima
Dressed in blackNero vestita
Undressed and barefootDiscinta e scalza

A fierce cryGrido feroce
Of death arisesDi morte levasi
The echo repeats itL'eco il ripete
From leap to leapDi balza in balza

Sinister shinesSinistra splende
On the horrible facesSui volti orribilli
The gloomy flameLa tetra fiamma
That rises to the skyChe s'alza al ciel
