Lyrics
Tra mare e fiori
Sei nata tu Terra d’amore
Non morirai mai
Campi di grano
Bruciati dal sole
Dove lasciai il primo amore
Sicilia antica
Del mio cuore
Quante ricchezze
Qua tieni tu.
Facce indurite (dal sole)
Occhi impietosi
Ma nel cuore
C’e' tanto calore
E' la mia gente
Che canta per niente
E la fatica
Li felici.
Sicilia antica
Del mio cuore
Quante ricchezze
Qua tieni tu Tra mare e sole
Nacqui io Figlia di terra
Non (ci) sei piu'
Mille vicoli
Mi tornano in mente
Dovo ho lasciato
I ricordi piu' belli
Sicilia antica
Del mio cuore
Quante ricchezze
Qua tieni tu.
Sicilia antica
Terra di sale («di difficolt?» per l’epoca)
Come l’amore
Non torni piu'
Lyrics translation
Between the sea and flowers
You were born Land of love
You'll never die
Wheat fields
Sunburned
Where I left my first love
Ancient Sicily
Of my heart
How many riches
Here you go.
Hardened faces (from the sun)
Merciless eyes
But in the heart
It's so hot
They're my people.
Singing for nothing
And fatigue
Happy them.
Ancient Sicily
Of my heart
How many riches
Here you keep between sea and sun
I was born daughter of Earth
You're not there anymore.
A thousand alleys
They come back to my mind
Dovo I left
The best memories
Ancient Sicily
Of my heart
How many riches
Here you go.
Ancient Sicily
Land of salt ("Di difficolt?"for the time)
Like love
Don't come back.
