Na Sera 'e Maggio

In the May Evening

Na Sera 'e Maggio

When the appointment comesQuanno vien'a 'appuntamento
Look at the sea, look at the leavesGuarde 'o mare, guarde ffronne
If I talk to you, you don't respondSi te parlo nun rispunne
You're distracted like thatStaje distratta comm'a che
I hold you in my heartIo te tengo dinto core
I'm still in loveSóngo ancor 'nnammurato
But you, instead, think of someone elseMa tu, invece, pienze a n'ato
And you're forgetting about meE te staje scurdanno 'e me

When it's said: Yes!Quanno se dice: Sí!
Keep it in mindTiènelo a mente
A loving heartNun s'ha da fá murí
Should not dieNu core amante
You told me: Yes! In the May eveningTu mme diciste: Sí! Na sera 'e maggio
And now do you have the courage to leave me?E mo tiene 'o curaggio 'e mme lassá?

Your eyes are not sincereSt'uocchie tuoje nun só' sincere
Like when you met meComm'a quanno mme 'ncuntraste
Like when you told meComm'a quanno mme diciste
'I love only you'"Voglio bene sulo a te"
And trembling, you swore to meE tremmanno mme giuraste
With a hand on your heartCu na mano 'ncoppo core
You don't forget the first love!Nun se scorda 'o primmo ammore!
Now you're forgetting about meMo te staje scurdanno 'e me

When it's said: Yes!Quanno se dice: Sí!
Keep it in mindTiènelo a mente
A loving heartNun s'ha da fá murí
Should not dieNu core amante
You told me: Yes! In the May eveningTu mme diciste: Sí! Na sera 'e maggio
And now do you have the courage to leave me?E mo tiene 'o curaggio 'e mme lassá?

You told me: Yes! In the May eveningTu mme diciste: Sí! Na sera 'e maggio
