Di Mamme Ce N'è Una Sola (original)Di Mamme Ce N'è Una Sola (translation)
Come una capinera, sono in terra straniera Like a blackcap, I'm in a foreign land
Ma quando penso al mio cielo e al mio casolare mi par di morir But when I think of my sky and my cottage I feel like I'm going to die
Or che la mamma è lontana, la mia chitarra romana Now that my mother is far away, my Roman guitar
La pizza napoletana, l’azzurra marina, ahimè, più non ho The Neapolitan pizza, the navy blue, alas, I no longer have
E allor come in sogno venuta, la bianca testina canuta And then as in a dream come, the white head white
Mi porta al mio vecchio quartiere, fra i glicini in fiore e mi canta così… She takes me to my old neighborhood, among the wisteria in bloom and sings to me like this ...
Di mamme ce n'è una sola, ma caro figliolo, di babbo uno solo non sempre ce n'è. There is only one mothers, but dear son, only one father does not always exist.
La mamma sol ti consola, la piccola casa, l’angusta dimora, par quella d’un re Mother only comforts you, the small house, the cramped abode, looks like that of a king
Figliolo, ora sei lontano da me, laggiù sono ricchi e di mamme ne han tre… Son, now you are far from me, over there they are rich and they have three mothers ...
Ma la tua mamma è italiana e ne val cento da sé! But your mom is Italian and she is worth a hundred for herself!
Seconda strofa, che tira all’erotismo: Second verse, which leads to eroticism:
Più d’una donna procace ha simulato l’amor More than one busty woman has simulated love
Con un suo bacio mendace, promessa fallace di un attimo sol With a kiss from her false, false promise of a single moment
Via quell’amor mercenario, vattene, femmina ignuda! Away with that mercenary love, go away, naked female!
Ogni tuo bacio sensuale è un bacio di Giuda al sapor di champagne Your every sensual kiss is a champagne-flavored Judas kiss
Che cosa cercavo laggiù, fra azzurre e sensuali abat-jours What was I looking for over there, between blue and sensual lampshades
C'è tutto ! There is everything!
Ritorno al mio vecchio quartiere, fra i glicini in fiore, e ti canto così… I return to my old neighborhood, among the wisteria in bloom, and I sing to you like this ...
Everybody, con sentimento: Everybody, with feeling:
Le mamme son tutte belle, anche se vecchierelle, son come le stelle che brillan The mothers are all beautiful, even if old ladies, they are like the stars that shine
nel ciel in the sky
Le mamme son tutte bianche, son curve e stanche, io voglio tornare, mamma, da te The mothers are all white, they are bent and tired, I want to go back, mum, to you
Se un dì me ne andai non lo voglio far più, io voglio tornare per sempre laggiù If one day I left I don't want to do it anymore, I want to go back there forever
Dalla mia mamma italiana… eh?From my Italian mom ... huh?
…E non lasciarla mai più…... And never leave it again ...
