I' Te Vurria Vasà
Ah! Che bell'aria fresca
Ch'addore 'e malvarosa
E tu durmenno staje
'Ncopp'a sti ffronne 'e rosa!
'O sole, a poco a poco
Pe' stu ciardino sponta
E 'o viento passa e vasa
Stu ricciulillo 'nfronte!
I' te vurría vasá
I' te vurría vasá
Ma 'o core nun mmo ddice
'E te scetá 'e te scetá!
I' mme vurría addurmí
I' mme vurría addurmí
Vicino ô sciato tujo
N'ora pur'I N'ora pur'I'!
Sento stu core tuojo
Ca sbatte comm'a ll'onne
Durmenno, angelo mio
Chisà tu a chi te suonne
'A gelusia turmenta
Stu core mio malato
Te suonne a me? Dimméllo
O pure suonne a n'ato?
I' te vurría vasá
I' te vurría vasá
Ma 'o core nun mmo ddice
'E te scetá 'e te scetá!
I' mme vurría addurmí
I' mme vurría addurmí
Vicino ô sciato tujo
N'ora pur'I N'ora pur'I'!
I Want to Kiss You
Ah! What a nice cool breeze
With the scent of wild roses
And you sleeping
On these rose petals!
The sun, little by little
Sprouts in this garden
And the wind passes by and kisses
Your little curls on your forehead!
I want to kiss you
I want to kiss you
But my heart doesn't tell me
To wake you up, to wake you up!
I want to fall asleep
I want to fall asleep
Close to your side
Now and forever!
I feel your heart
That beats like the waves
Sleeping, my angel
Who knows who you dream of
Jealousy torments
My sick heart
Do you dream of me? Tell me
Or do you dream of someone else?
I want to kiss you
I want to kiss you
But my heart doesn't tell me
To wake you up, to wake you up!
I want to fall asleep
I want to fall asleep
Close to your side
Now and forever!
