Paroles et traduction Nino D'Angelo - 'O studente

'O studente

Nun t'offro mai regali
Me vest semp 'o stess
Si tu parl accussì
Nun me può mai capì
A te t' piace 'o luss
Te piace l'eleganza
Segui la moda
Non vuoi seguire me
C'è troppa differenza tra di noi

Studente ricc 'e nient
M'ha annascunnev 'o scuorn
'E nu segret amaro
Ca sto dicenn 'a te
Chell ca fà mammà
Tu nun 'o ssaie
Fà 'a camerier dint 'a casa toia
E io t' ha vennett pè na gran signora
Pè nun me vergognà
Della mia povertà
T'aggi' svelat tutt
Te prego mò vattenn
L'orgoglio 'e sti vint'ann addà murì cu me
Sul cu me

Cchiù nient nun te cerc
'Na grazia sulament
Nun dì nient 'a mammà
Nun 'a murtificà
Ma fà ca stu raccont
Sia giunto a lieto fine
Senza rancore
E no comm fai tu
Sorridi al mio dolore e mi disprezzi

Studente ricc 'e nient
M'ha annascunnev 'o scuorn
'E nu segret amaro
Ca sto dicenn 'a te
Chell ca fà mammà
Tu nun 'o ssaie
Fà 'a camerier dint 'a casa toia
E io t' ha vennett pè na gran signora
Pè nun me vergognà
Della mia povertà
T'aggi' svelat tutt
Te prego mò vattenn
L'orgoglio 'e sti vint'ann addà murì cu me
Sul cu me

'O studente

I never buy you gifts
I always wear the same clothes
If you speak like this
You can never understand me
You like luxury
You like elegance
You follow fashion
You don't want to follow me
There's too much difference between us

Rich student with nothing
You've hidden my shame
And a bitter secret
That I'm telling you
What my mother does
You don't know
She's a maid in your house
And I sold you off as a great lady
So that I wouldn't be ashamed
Of my poverty
I've revealed everything to you
Now I beg you, leave
The pride of these twenty years must die with me
With me

I ask nothing more of you
Only one favor
Don't tell my mother
Don't humiliate her
But make this story
Come to a happy end
Without resentment
And don't do as you do
Smile at my pain and despise me

Rich student with nothing
You've hidden my shame
And a bitter secret
That I'm telling you
What my mother does
You don't know
She's a maid in your house
And I sold you off as a great lady
So that I wouldn't be ashamed
Of my poverty
I've revealed everything to you
Now I beg you, leave
The pride of these twenty years must die with me
With me
