Lyrics
Partono 'e bastimente
Pe' terre assaje luntane…
Cántano a buordo:
Só' Napulitane!
Cantano pe' tramente
'o golfo giá scumpare
E 'a luna, 'a miez'ô mare
Nu poco 'e Napule
Lle fa vedé…
Santa Lucia!
Luntano 'a te
Quanta malincunia!
Se gira 'o munno sano
Se va a cercá furtuna…
Ma, quanno sponta 'a luna
Luntano 'a Napule
Nun se pò stá!
Santa Lucia, tu tiene
Sulo nu poco 'e mare…
Ma, cchiù luntana staje
Cchiù bella pare…
E' 'o canto d''e Ssirene
Ca tesse ancora 'e rrezze!
Core nun vò' ricchezze:
Si è nato a Napule
Ce vò' murí!
Santa Lucia!
Luntano 'a te
Quanta malincunia!
Se gira 'o munno sano
Se va a cercá furtuna…
Ma, quanno sponta 'a luna
Luntano 'a Napule
Nun se pò stá!
Santa Lucia
Luntano 'a te
Quanta malincunia!
Lyrics translation
Depart ' and bastimente
On ' terre assaje luntane…
Cantano a buordo:
Just ' Napulitane!
They sing pe ' tramente
'the Gulf is already expensive
It's on the moon, in the middle of the sea
Nu poco ' e Napule
Lle FA vedé…
Saint Lucia!
Luntano ' to you
What a mess!
If it turns ' O munno sano
It's going to storm fence…
But, when the moon rises
Luntano ' a Napule
No way!
Saint Lucia, you have
Sulo NU poco ' e mare…
But, just stay here.
How beautiful it looks…
It's the song D"E Ssirene
We still weave and retrace!
Core nun Vò ' riches:
He was born in Napule
You're gonna die!
Saint Lucia!
Luntano ' to you
What a mess!
If it turns ' O munno sano
It's going to storm fence…
But, when the moon rises
Luntano ' a Napule
No way!
Saint Lucia
Luntano ' to you
What a mess!
