Lyrics and translation Alessio Bondì - In funn'o mare




In funn'o mare
In funn'o mare
M'assicuti e 'un m'assicuti cchiù
I'll sit down and I'll never sit down again
Stai facennu tutti cosi tu
You're doing everything
In mienz'a via mi fiermu un attimu
In the middle of the street, I stop for a moment
E chianciu 'u mare ma 'sti lacrimi 'i cu su'?
And I weep for the sea, but whose tears are these?
M'assicuti, m'assicutate in due
I sit down, I'll sit down with you
A tia ti viu; l'àvutru, chi sugnu ìu?
I see you; the other, who am I?
In mienz'a via m'àmmucciu un attimu
In the middle of the road I hide for a moment
E chianciu 'u mare
And I weep for the sea
Ma 'sti lacrimi 'un s'asciucanu... mai
But these tears will never dry... never
E mi 'nsonnu di vulari
And I dream of flying
In mienzu ai stiddi
In the midst of stars
I stiddi russi in funn'o mare
Red stars in the depths of the sea
E mi 'nsonnu di natari
And I dream of swimming
'Un fussi bellu
Wouldn't it be lovely
Rispirari in funn'o mare?
To breathe in the depths of the sea?
M'assicuti e ìu assicutu a tia
I sit down and I sit down next to you
N'o disertu d'a me' lagnusìa
In the desert of my melancholy
S'allaga 'a via e t'allaghi puru tu
The road floods and floods you too
Ma 'u chianciu ìu 'stu mari
But I weep this sea
'Sti lacrimi su' i mia
These tears are mine
E chianciu p'anniari
And I weep to drown
Ca 'sti lacrimi 'un asciucanu... mai
Because these tears will never dry... never
Annìu e m'addurmisciu ìu
I drown and I fall asleep
Scinnu a funnu
I sink down
Scinnu a chiummu in funn'o mare
I sink like lead in the depths of the sea
E cu' l'occhi vuoti, chini 'i sale
And with empty eyes, full of salt
Viu 'u cielu
I see the sky
Mi pare un mare in cap'o mare
It seems a sea upon the sea
Annìu e 'un mi svegliare mai
I drown and I'll never awaken
Si mi curcu
If I lie down
A panz'all'aria in funn'o mare
With my belly in the air in the depths of the sea
E tutti l'armi fannu un carnevale
And all the lobsters throw a carnival
E m'immitanu a cantari
And invite me to sing
Vogghiu mòriri accussì
I want to die like this
