Lu Grillu E La Luna - Domenico , Modugno traduction en anglais

Lu Grillu E La Luna

Cri, Cri
Nu grillu intra la notti stai cantandu
Mentri la luna chiena stai nascendu
E si specchia
Intra li canali
Cri, cri
Si tu sapissi luna che duluri
Nu mi faristi chiangeri ogni sira accussì
Cri, cri, cri cri, cri, cri
Vieni, vieni, vieni intra lu stagnu
Guarda, guarda
Comme sugnu bedda
Vieni, vieni, vieni ad abbracciarmi
E lu grillu si tuffò
Ma pi pocu nu s'affugò
Nu s'affugò
Cri cri
Da chidda notti i grillu innammuratu
Nu ritornò a cantari comme ogni sira
Alla luna
Cà si specchia intra li canali

The Cricket and the Moon

Creak, creak
A cricket in the night is singing
As the full moon is rising
And is reflected
In the canals
Creak, creak
If you only knew, moon, what pain
You would not make me cry every evening
Creak, creak, creak creak, creak, creak
Come, come, come into the pond
Look, look
How beautiful I am
Come, come, come to embrace me
And the cricket plunged
But nearly drowned
He didn't drown
Creak creak
From that night the cricket in love
Did not return to sing as every evening
To the moon
That is reflected in the canals
