Lyrics
Povera Angelina,
ti sei fatta un vestito di seta colorata…
per ballare.
Povera Angelina,
hai lavato i capelli che sanno di gelsomino…
per ballare.
Quando la sera verr, te ne andrai cantando
verso le luci che vedi dall’alto della collina
e a piedi nudi, ridendo,
Angelina, ballerai… carnevale.
Povera Angelina,
hai dipinto le labbra di rosso corallo…
per ballare.
Povera Angelina,
stringendoti qualcuno ti dir che sei bella…
carnevale.
Quando la sera verr, te ne andrai danzando
verso la gente che canta sulla riva del mare,
per una lunga, tenera notte
Angelina, ballerai… carnevale
Lyrics translation
Poor Angelina,
you made yourself a dress of colored silk…
to dance.
Poor Angelina,
have you washed your hair that taste of jasmine…
to dance.
When the evening comes, you will leave singing
towards the lights you see from the top of the hill
and barefoot, laughing,
Angelina, you will Dance ... Carnival.
Poor Angelina,
you painted your lips coral red…
to dance.
Poor Angelina,
holding you someone will tell you you're beautiful…
carnival.
When the evening comes, you'll go dancing
to the people singing on the seashore,
for a long, tender night
Angelina, you will Dance ... Carnival
