Paroles et traduction Eleonora Bordonaro - Lamento di Maria

Lamento di Maria

Tutti vui considerati, chi passati 'pi la via
Si mai pena arritruvati simili alla pena mia
Piangiriti con pietadi cundulenduvi di mia
Lu miu figghiu vidiriti mortu 'n cruci, amara mia!
Tuttu chinu di feriti, cui di vui nun chianciria?

Donni tutti pi la strata, mi fariti cumpagnia
Chi su' matri scunsulata, persa, sula, alla strania
Figghiu, comu pozzu fari, chi su persa, amara mia!
Nuddu ajutu ti po dari la scuntenta di Maria

Figghiu, la tua bella testa, chi era tantu dilicata
Nun si 'sta timpesta, mentri 'i spini è 'ncurunata
Figghiu, lu to bellu visu, ch'era un tempu stralucenti
Facia in terra un paradisu, ora è un mare di turmenti
Undi sunu li capiddi chi pareunu fila d'oru?
Nun ci sunnu chiu di chiddi, tutti scippati ti foru

E si miro li to pedi, manu e latu lacerati
Attaccati cu tri chiova e cu lanci di surdati
E lu chiantu mi rinuova caminannu pi li strati
Non haju amici e né parenti chi mi fanu compagnia
Sula, afflitta, amaramenti chiangirò la pena mia

Non haju amici e né parenti chi mi fanu compagnia
Sula, afflitta, amaramenti chiangirò la pena mia

Lament of Mary

All of you who are passing by, consider
If you ever found yourself in a similar pain like mine
Pity me and weep with me upon seeing this
My son died on the cross, my dear!
He is full of wounds, who among you would not weep?

Ladies in the street, keep me company
I am a desperate mother, lost, alone, abroad
My son, how can I do it, now that I am lost, my dear!
None can help you, the unhappy Mary

My son, your beautiful head, which was so delicate
Was in such a storm, as it was crowned with thorns
My son, your beautiful face, which once shone so brightly
Made paradise on earth, but now it's a sea of torment
Where are those golden locks?
There are none left, they were all torn from you

And if I look at your feet, hands and lacerated side
Nailed with three nails and pierced by the spears of soldiers
And my crying renews as I walk through the streets
I have no friends or family to keep me company
Alone, afflicted, I will bitterly weep for my sorrow

I have no friends or family to keep me company
Alone, afflicted, I will bitterly weep for my sorrow
