Tammurriata nera

Io nun capisco a vote, che succede
E chello ca se vede
Nun se crede! nun se crede!

E' nato nu criaturo niro, niro
E 'a mamma 'o chiamma Giro
Sissignore, 'o chiamma Giro
Séh! gira e vota, séh
Séh! vota e gira, séh

Ca tu 'o chiamme Ciccio o 'Ntuono
Ca tu 'o chiamme Peppe o Giro
Chillo, o fatto, è niro, niro
Niro, niro comm'a che!

'O contano 'e ccummare chist'affare
"Sti fatte nun só' rare
Se ne contano a migliara!

A 'e vvote basta sulo na guardata
E 'a femmena è restata
Sott"a botta, 'mpressiunata"
Séh! na guardata, séh
Séh! na 'mpressione, séh

Va' truvanno mo chi è stato
Ch'ha cugliuto buono 'o tiro
Chillo, 'o fatto, è niro, niro
Niro, niro comm'a che!

Mé', dillo a mamma, mé'
Mé', dillo pure a me
Ca tu 'o chiamme Ciccio o 'Ntuono
Ca tu 'o chiamme Peppe o Giro
Chillo...'o ninno, è niro, niro
Niro, niro comm'a che!

Black Tammurriata

I don't understand at times, what happens
And what you see
You don't believe! You don't believe!

A black child was born, black, black
And his mother calls him Giro
Yes, Sir, she calls him Giro
Séh! spins and turns, séh
Séh! turns and spins, séh

You call him Ciccio or 'Ntuono
You call him Peppe or Giro
He is, in fact, black, black
Black, black like that!

The neighbors tell this story
"These things are not rare
There are thousands of them!

Sometimes just a glance is enough
And the woman is taken
Spellbound, amazed"
Séh! a glance, séh
Séh! a sense, séh

Go find out who it was now
That hit the good shot
He is, in fact, black, black
Black, black like that!

My, tell mother, my
My, tell me too
You call him Ciccio or 'Ntuono
You call him Peppe or Giro
He...'o ninno, is black, black
Black, black like that!
