Core 'ngrato
Catari, Catari, pecché me dici
sti parole amare;
pecché me parle e 'o core me turmiente,
Catari?
Nun te scurdà ca t'aggio date 'o core,
Catari, nun te scurdà!
Catari, Catari, ché vene a dicere stu parlà
ca me dà spaseme?
Tu nun'nce pienze a stu dulore mio,
tu nun'nce pienze, tu nun te ne cure.
Core, core 'ngrato,
t'aie pigliato 'a vita mia,
tutt'è passato e
nun'nce pienze chiù!
Ungrateful Heart
Catari, Catari, why do you tell me
these bitter words;
why do you speak and torment my heart,
Catari?
Don't forget that I gave you my heart,
Catari, don't forget!
Catari, Catari, why do you come to say these words
that hurt me?
You don't think about my pain,
you don't think about it, you don't care.
Ungrateful heart,
you took my life,
everything has passed and
you don't think anymore!
