Signorinella (1934) (original)Signorinella (1934) (translation)
Signorinella pallida Pale lady
Dolce dirimpettaia del quinto piano Sweet opposite on the fifth floor
Non v'è una notte ch’io non sogni Napoli There isn't a night that I don't dream of Naples
E son vent’anni che ne sto lontano And I've been away from it for twenty years
Al mio paese nevica It snows in my country
Il campanile della chiesa è bianco The church tower is white
Tutta la legna è diventata cenere All the wood has turned to ash
Io ho sempre freddo e sono triste e stanco I am always cold and I am sad and tired
Amore mio, non ti ricordi My love, you don't remember
Che nel dirmi addio Than in saying goodbye
Mi mettesti all’occhiello una pansè You put a pansy in my buttonhole
Poi mi dicesti con la voce tremula: Then you said to me in a tremulous voice:
Non ti scordar di me Do not forget me
Bei tempi di baldoria Good times of revelry
Dolce felicità fatta di niente Sweet happiness made of nothing
Brindisi coi bicchieri colmi d’acqua Toast with glasses full of water
Al nostro amore povero e innocente To our poor and innocent love
Negli occhi tuoi passavano In your eyes they passed
Una speranza, un sogno e una carezza A hope, a dream and a caress
Avevi un nome che non si dimentica You had a name you won't forget
Un nome lungo e breve: Giovinezza A long and short name: Youth
Il mio piccino My little one
In un mio vecchio libro di latino In an old Latin book of mine
Ha trovato — indovina — una pansè She found - guess what - a pansy
Perchè negli occhi mi tremò una lacrima? Why did a tear tremble in my eyes?
Chissà, chissà perchè! Who knows, who knows why!
E gli anni e i giorni passano And the years and days go by
Eguali e grigi con monotonia Equal and gray with monotony
Le nostre foglie più non rinverdiscono Our leaves no longer green
Signorinella, che malinconia! Miss, what a melancholy!
Tu innamorata e pallida You in love and pale
Più non ricami innanzi al tuo telaio You no longer embroider in front of your loom
Io qui son diventato il buon Don Cesare Here I have become the good Don Cesare
Porto il mantello a ruota e fo il notaio I wear a cloak and I am a notary
Mentre lontana While distant
Mentre ti sento, suona la campana While I hear you, the bell rings
Della piccola chiesa del Gesu Of the small church of the Gesu
E nevica, vedessi come nevica: And it snows, if you could see how it snows:
Ma tu, dove sei tuBut you, where are you
