Lyrics

Si duorme o si nun duorme bella mia,
siente pe' nu mumento chesta voce…
Chi te vІ' bene assaje sta 'mmiez'ў via
pe' te cantЎ na canzuncella doce…
Ma staje durmenno, nun te si' scetata,
sti ffenestelle nun se vonno apr­…
nu ricamo 'sta mandulinata…
sc (c)tate bella mia, nun cchi№ durm­!
'Ncielo se sі' arrucchiate ciento stelle,
tutte pe' stЎ a sent­ chesta canzone…
Aggio 'ntiso 'e parlЎ li ttre cchi№ belle,
dicevano: Nce tne passione…
E' passione ca nun passa maje…
passa lu munno, essa nun passarrЎ…
Tu, certo, a chesto nun ce penzarraje…
ma tu nasciste pe' mm’affatturЎ…

You sleep or you nun sleep beautiful my,

Who you 'well assaje sta 'mmiez' ў away
pe'te Canty na canzuncella sweet…
