Ninna nanna marinare

Ninna nanna marinare
'Ngopp a varca, miezo o mare
Io te parl e nun respunn
Te si perze miez o suonn

Te vurria magna' de vas
Ma ho paura e te sceta'
Cosi' guarde da luntane
Co' stu core innammurat

Quann aggia' spetta
D'averti questa sera
Co'sta luna quiena?
Quann aggia ' sogna'
Di dirti quanto t'amo
Co' stu' core 'man - ma tu -
sogni qui nel bluuuu...

Ninna nanna marinare
Tu si bell comme o' mare
vote calm, senza creste
vote tutta na' tempesta

Ma tu suonn d'ate cose
chissa se t'arricuord
Che tra a luna e mieze e stelle
Io t'aspette a braccia aperte

Quann aggia' spetta
D'averti questa sera
Co'sta luna quiena?
Quann aggia ' sogna'
Di dirti quanto t'amo
Co' stu' core 'man - ma tu -
sogni qui nel bluuuu...

Ninna nanna nanna nanna
Ninna nanna nanna nanna

Sleep, sleep sailor
On the boat, in the middle of the sea
I speak to you, but you don't answer
You are lost in your dreams

I want to devour you with kisses
But I am afraid to awaken you
So I gaze at you from afar
With this heart in love

How long must I wait
To have you this evening
With this full moon?
How long must I dream
Of telling you how much I love you
With my heart in my hand?
But you dream in the blue...

Sleep, sleep sailor
You are beautiful like the sea
Sometimes calm without crests
Sometimes just like a storm

But you are dreaming of other things
And who knows if you will remember
That between the moon and the stars
I am waiting for you with open arms

How long must I wait
To have you this evening
With this full moon?
How long must I dream
Of telling you how much I love you
With my heart in my hand?
But you dream in the blue...
