Pe' 'mpastá sti ccarne belle

Tutto chello ca mettette?
Tutto chello ca mettette?
Ciento rose 'ncappucciate
Dint " a mártula mmescate
Latte, rose, rose e latte

Nun c'è bisogno 'a zingara
P'andiviná, Cuncè'
Comme t'ha fatto mámmeta

Nun servette 'a stessa dose
Nun servette 'a stessa dose

Nu panaro chino, chino

Mèle, zuccaro e cannella

Nun c'è bisogno 'a zingara
P'andiviná, Cuncè'
Comme t'ha fatto mámmeta
'O ssaccio meglio 'e te
E pe' fá sti ttrezze d'oro

Bella mia, tu qua' muneta
Bella mia, tu qua' muneta

Vuó' sapé che nce servette?
Na miniera sana sana
Tutta fatta a filagrana
Nce vulette pe' sti ttrezze
Che, a vasá, nun ce sta prezzo!
Nun c'è bisogno 'a zingara
P'andiviná, Cuncè'
Comme t'ha fatto mámmeta
'O ssaccio meglio 'e te
How Did Mommy Make You?
When mommy made you
When mommy made you
Do you want to know how she did it?
Do you want to know how she did it?
To knead these beautiful meats
To knead these beautiful meats
All that she put in?
All that she put in?
One hundred roses wrapped
Mixed in the mortar
Milk, roses, roses and milk
She made you on the deed!
There's no need for the gypsy
To guess, Cuncè'
How mommy made you
She knows you better!
And to make this beautiful mouth
And to make this beautiful mouth
It didn't take the same dose
It didn't take the same dose
Do you want to know what she put in there?
Do you want to know what she put in there?
Now I'll tell you everything
Now I'll tell you everything
A basket full, full
All the garden's strawberries
Honey, sugar, and cinnamon
She kneaded this beautiful mouth
There's no need for the gypsy
To guess, Cuncè'
How mommy made you
She knows you better
And to make these golden braids
And to make these golden braids
Your mom got upset
Your mom got upset
My beauty, what a wonder
My beauty, what a wonder
Do you want to know what she needed?
Do you want to know what she needed?
A healthy, healthy mine
All made of filigree
It took for these braids
That, to touch, are priceless!
There's no need for the gypsy
To guess, Cuncè'
How mommy made you
She knows you better
