Fuga in Egitto - Enzo Avitabile Übersetzung ins Englische

Fuga in Egitto

San Giusep e la Madona
I andavu par la strà
San Giusep e la Madona
Ehi, al nost Signur
I andavu par la strà al nost Signur alleluja

Ant in camp j'era 'n brav omu
C'al semnava dal bon gran

O brav om j'o fam e sei
Ndua pudumma andà a mangià

A j'o mmac dal pan e d'l aqua
Pan e aqua e 'n poc 'd furmag

O mangè, mangè Madona
O mangè vui e 'l vost fio

Andè pura o vui brav omu
Andè pura a seminà

L'è pasai nen mes'ura
E al gran l'era sa jaut

J'en rivà i suldà di Erode
Tuti ebrei rinegà

O brav om c'at coj 'l gran
A j'ei vist d'ina masnà

L'era chi cun la so mama
Quand al semnava ant al me camp

Ndumma andrè, o miei soldati
J'eru chi l'ani pasà.

Flight into Egypt

Saint Joseph and the Madonna
They walked along the street
Saint Joseph and the Madonna
Hey, to our Lord
They walked along the street to our Lord, hallelujah

There was a good man in the field
Who sowed good grain

Good man, I am hungry and thirsty
Where can we go to eat

I'll give you bread and water
Bread and water and a little cheese

Eat, eat Madonna
Eat you and your son

Go on, good man
Go on and sow

Not even half an hour had passed
And the grain had already sprouted

Here came Herod's soldiers
All the Jews denied

Good man who picks the grain
I saw him with a child

He was here with his mother
When he sowed in my field

Go inside, my soldiers
He was here last year.
