Lyrics of Concertino - Quartetto Cetra

Concertino (original)

Concertino, al chiar di Luna
sotto il balconcino
finche' verra' il mattino
Plin, plin
plin fa il mandolino
Plan, plan
plan fa la chitarra
Plun, plun
plun fa il contrabbasso
E il mattino, gia' canta il gallo
sopra l’abbaino
E' stanco il concertino
Plin fa il mandolino
ma resta la'
Plan fa la chitarra
non se ne va
Plun fa il contrabbasso
ma che bonta'!
Tanto non s’affaccera'
Plin, plan, plun
Plin, plan, plun
suona, suona concertino
Plin, plan, plun
Plin, plan, plun
Tanto non s’affaccera'
Concertino al chiar di Luna
sotto il balconcino
finche' verra' il mattino
Plin, plin
plin fa il mandolino
Plan, plan
plan fa la chitarra
Plun, plun
plun fa il contrabbasso
Pian pianino… furtivamente
s’apre il balconcino
E' in festa il concertino
Plin fa il mandolino
piu' forte ancor
Plan fa la chitarra
con piu' calor
Plun fa il contrabbasso
con piu' vigor
Tutto per il nuovo amor
Pian pianino… furtivamente
s’apre il balconcino
E' in festa il concertino
Plin fa il mandolino
la la la la
Plan fa la chitarra
la la la la
Plun fa il contrabbasso
la la la la
Tutto per il nuovo amor
Daga dadanga danga danga
Daga dadanga danga danga dan
plun

(translation)

Concertino, in the moonlight
under the balcony
until morning comes
Plin, plin
plin plays the mandolin
Plan, plan
plan plays the guitar
Plun, plun
plun plays the double bass
And in the morning, the rooster sings
above the dormer window
The concertino is tired
Plin plays the mandolin
but stay there
Plan plays the guitar
does not go away
Plun plays the double bass
but what goodness!
He won't look out anyway
Plin, plan, plun
Plin, plan, plun
play, play concertino
Plin, plan, plun
Plin, plan, plun
He won't look out anyway
Concertino in the moonlight
under the balcony
until morning comes
Plin, plin
plin plays the mandolin
Plan, plan
plan plays the guitar
Plun, plun
plun plays the double bass
Slowly ... stealthily
the balcony opens
The concertino is celebrating
Plin plays the mandolin
stronger still
Plan plays the guitar
with more heat
Plun plays the double bass
with more vigor
All for the new love
Slowly ... stealthily
the balcony opens
The concertino is celebrating
Plin plays the mandolin
la la la la
Plan plays the guitar
la la la la
Plun plays the double bass
la la la la
All for the new love
Dagger dadanga danga danga
Dagger dadanga danga danga dan
plun
