'Nu Bello Cardillo - Joan Baez Übersetzung ins Englische

'Nu Bello Cardillo

Sto′ criscenno no bello Cardillo
Quanta cose ca ll'aggi"a ′mpara
Ha da ire da chisto e da chillo
Li 'mmasciate isso mm'ha da porta
Siente cca bello mio: lloco ′nnante
Nc′e na casa, na nenna nce sta
Tu la vide ca nun e distante
Chella nenna haje ire a trova
Si la truove ca stace dormenno
Pe' na fata, gue, non la piglia
No rommore non fa co′ li ppenne
Gue, cardi', tu ll′aviss"a sceta?
Si affacciata po' sta a lo barcone
Pe′ na rosa ll'aviss"a piglia?
Gue, cardi', vi′ ca lla tu te stuone
Va′ vattenne cardi', nn"addura
Si la truove ca face ll′ammore
'Sto cortiello annascunnete cca
′Nficcancillo deritto a lo core
E lo sango tu mm'haje da porta
Ma si penza vatte′ chiano chiano
Zitto zitto te nce haje da azzecca
Si afferra po' te vo' co′ la mano
Priesto ′mpietto tu ll'haje da zompa

'Nu Bello Cardillo

I am growing into a handsome young man
How many things I have to learn
I have to go from this one to that one
He has to bring me the messages
Listen here, my handsome one: up ahead
There's a house, a young woman is there
You'll see her, she's not far away
You have to go and find that young woman
If you find her sleeping
Don't wake her up
Don't make any noise with your feet
Can you wake her up, handsome?
If she appears at the balcony
Can you get her a rose?
Look, you're making her feel uncomfortable
Go away, you're disturbing her
If you find her making love
Hide this knife here
Stick it right into her heart
And you have to bring me her blood
But if you think, go slowly
Quietly, quietly you have to get close to her
If she grabs you, I'll take you with my hand
Quickly onto her chest you have to jump
