Dicitencello Vuje

Tell her about this girl of yoursDicitencello a 'sta cumpagna vosta
that I've lost my dreams and my imagination...ch'aggio perduto 'o suonno e 'a fantasia...
that I always think of her,ch''a penzo sempe,
that she's my whole life...ch'è tutt''a vita mia...
I wish I could say it,I' nce 'o vvulesse dicere,
but I don't know how to...ma nun ce 'o ssaccio dí...
I love her...'A voglio bene...
I love her so much!'A voglio bene assaje!
Tell her for meDicitencello vuje
that I’ll never forget her.ca nun mm''a scordo maje.
It's a passion,E' na passione,
stronger than a chain,cchiù forte 'e na catena,
that torments my soul...ca mme turmenta ll'anema...
and won't let me live!...e nun mme fa campá!...
Tell her she's a May rose,Dicitencello ch'è na rosa 'e maggio,
that she's way more beautiful than a sunny day...ch'è assaje cchiù bella 'e na jurnata 'e sole...
From her lips,Da 'a vocca soja,
much fresher than violets,cchiù fresca d''e vviole,
I already want to heari' giá vulesse sèntere
that she's in love with me!ch'è 'nnammurata 'e me!
I love her...'A voglio bene...
I love her so much!'A voglio bene assaje!
Tell her for meDicitencello vuje
that I’ll never forget her.ca nun mm''a scordo maje.
It's a passion,E' na passione,
stronger than a chain,cchiù forte 'e na catena,
that torments my soul...ca mme turmenta ll'anema...
and won't let me live!...e nun mme fa campá!...
A shining tear has fallen from you...Na lácrema lucente v'è caduta...
tell me a little: what are you thinking?!dicíteme nu poco: a che penzate?!
With those sweet eyes,Cu st'uocchie doce,
you only look at me...vuje sola mme guardate...
Let’s take off this mask,Levámmoce 'sta maschera,
let's speak the truth...dicimmo 'a veritá...
I love you...Te voglio bene...
I love you so much...Te voglio bene assaje...
You're the chainSi' tu chesta catena
that will never break!ca nun se spezza maje!
Gentle dream,Suonno gentile,
my carnal sigh...suspiro mio carnale...
I search for you like air:Te cerco comm'a ll'aria:
I want you to live!Te voglio pe' campá!...
