Vissi d’arte, vissi d’amore, I lived of art, I lived of love,
non feci mai male ad anima viva! I never hurt a soul!
Con man furtiva With stealthy man
quante miserie conobbi aiutai. how many miseries I knew I helped.
Sempre con fè sincera Always with sincere faith
la mia preghiera my prayer
ai santi tabernacoli salì. he went up to the holy tabernacles.
Sempre con fè sincera Always with sincere faith
diedi fiori agl’altar. I gave flowers to the altar.
Nell’ora del dolore In the hour of pain
perchè, perchè, Signore, Why, why, Lord,
perchè me ne rimuneri così? why do you pay me back like that?
Diedi gioielli della Madonna al manto, I gave the Madonna's jewels to the mantle,
e diedi il canto agli astri, al ciel, and I gave song to the stars, to heaven,
che ne ridean più belli. who laugh more beautifully.
Nell’ora del dolor In the hour of pain
perchè, perchè, Signor, why, why, mister,
ah, perchè me ne rimuneri così?ah, why do you pay me so?
