Translation of the song lyrics Bambino Io, Bambino Tu (Legenda) - Zucchero

Bambino Io, Bambino Tu (Legenda) (original)

Lui stava seduto lì seduto nel giardino
Ed era quasi nudo e piccolino
Da dove era venuto non lo so
Era normale che lui fosse lì
Aveva un occhio nero e un occhio blu
Bambino mio, bambino oh
Sembrava primavera ed era inverno
E c’erano dei fiori tutto intorno
Doveva essere buio e c’era luce
E tutto quello che mi piace
Aveva un occhio nero e un occhio blu
Bambino mio, bambino oh
Mi sono seduto in terra lì vicino
Ed era lui mio padre e lui mio figlio
Ho parlato di cose che non so
Di cose che non ho saputo mai
Aveva un occhio nero e un occhio blu
Bambino mio, bambino oh
(a ninna oh a ninna ah)
Poi mi è venuto sonno lì in giardino
Cantava e la sua voce era sottile
Mi sono svegliato e lui non c’era più
C’era un fiore di carta al posto suo
Io avevo un occhio nero e un occhio blu
Bambino mio, bambino oh
Mi sono svegliato e lui non c’era più
Io avevo un occhio nero e un occhio blu
Bambino io bambino tu
Bambino io bambino tu
E ninna oh e ninna ah
E ninna oh e ninna ah
E ninna oh e ninna ah
E ninna oh e ninna ah
E ninna oh e ninna ah
E ninna oh e ninna ah
E ninna oh e ninna ah
E ninna oh e ninna ah
E ninna oh e ninna ah
E ninna oh e ninna ah
E ninna oh e ninna ah
E ninna oh e ninna ah…
E ninna oh e ninna ah
E ninna oh e ninna ah
E ninna oh e ninna ah
E ninna oh e ninna ah

(translation)

He was sitting there sitting in the garden
And he was almost naked and small
I don't know where he came from
It was normal that he was there
He had a black eye and a blue eye
My baby, baby oh
It felt like spring and it was winter
And there were flowers all around
It had to be dark and there was light
And all I like
He had a black eye and a blue eye
My baby, baby oh
I sat on the ground nearby
And he was my father and he was my son
I've talked about things I don't know
Of things I never knew
He had a black eye and a blue eye
My baby, baby oh
(a ninna oh a ninna ah)
Then I got sleepy there in the garden
He sang and his voice was thin
I woke up and he was gone
There was a paper flower in his place
I had a black eye and a blue eye
My baby, baby oh
I woke up and he was gone
I had a black eye and a blue eye
Baby I baby you
Baby I baby you
And ninna oh and ninna ah
And ninna oh and ninna ah
And ninna oh and ninna ah
And ninna oh and ninna ah
And ninna oh and ninna ah
And ninna oh and ninna ah
And ninna oh and ninna ah
And ninna oh and ninna ah
And ninna oh and ninna ah
And ninna oh and ninna ah
And ninna oh and ninna ah
And ninna oh and ninna ah ...
And ninna oh and ninna ah
And ninna oh and ninna ah
And ninna oh and ninna ah
And ninna oh and ninna ah
