Balcone 'nchiuso
Addò 'stu core,
C' 'o primmo ammore,
'Ncatenato sta.
Tu ca m'hê visto
Sera e matina,
Dimme, Nannina
Si me penza cchiù?
Pecché me vò lassà?
Pecché me vò scurdà?
Pecché 'sta faccia d'angelo
Me vò fà chiagnere
'Sta giuventù?
Oje luna chiara,
Tu zitta e muta,
Sempe 'e reduta
Si nc'hê visto tu!
Pecché tu forze
Te n'addunave
Ch'essa giurava
Pe' me lusingà.
Pecché me vò lassà?
Pecché me vò scurdà?
Pecché 'sta faccia d'angelo
Me vò fà chiagnere
'Sta giuventù?
Cchiù d'uno ha ditto
Ca sposa a maggio.
Si me scuraggio
Pe' 'sta 'nfamità:
Chella serata
Senza sparagne
'Na casa chiagne…
E 'n'ata festa sta!
Pecché me vò lassà?
Pecché me vò scurdà?
Pecché 'sta faccia d'angelo
Me vò fà chiagnere
'Sta giuventù?
Closed balcony,
My heart,
With first love,
Is chained to you.
You've seen me here
Night and day,
Tell me,
Does Anna still think of me?
Why does she wants to leave me?
Why does she wants to forget me?
Why does her angel face
Make me destroy
My youth?
Oh, bright moon,
You are silent and sad,
You were always shining
Until you've seen her!
Maybe because
You have guessed
That she has sworn to me
Only to deceive me.
Why does she wants to leave me?
Why does she wants to forget me?
Why does her angel face
Make me destroy
My youth?
Many people have told
That she gets married in May.
If I despair
Because of this meanness:
That evening,
Incessantly,
The house will be crying…
And another celebration will begin!
Why does she wants to leave me?
Why does she wants to forget me?
Why does her angel face
Make me destroy
My youth?
