O Mio Babbino Caro
O mio babbino caro,
mi piace è bello, bello;
vo'andare in Porta Rossa
a comperar l'anello!
Sì, sì, ci voglio andare!
e se l'amassi indarno,
andrei sul Ponte Vecchio,
ma per buttarmi in Arno!
Mi struggo e mi tormento!
O Dio, vorrei morir!
Babbo, pietà, pietà!
Oh My Beloved Father
Oh my dear father,
I like him, he is handsome, handsome;
I want to go to Porta Rossa
to buy the ring!
Yes, yes, I want to go there!
and if I loved him in vain,
I would go to the Ponte Vecchio,
but to throw myself in the Arno!
I am anguished and tormented!
Oh God, I would like to die!
Father, have mercy, have mercy!
