Paroles et traduction Teresa De Sio - Capinera

Capinera

Capinera lava 'e piatti int' 'a cucina
Ma cu 'a capa nun ce sta
Lavando guarda fuori
Terra pe ce camminà
Capinera tene 'o nomme d' 'a canzone
E lle piace assai e cantà
Ma cu 'a fatica a ore
Pure 'a voce se ne va

Passa annanze 'o specchio e se guarda
E se vede chiù stanca e stanca cumm'è
Succede ch'isso manco chiù a vò tuccà
E allora nun pò aspettà

È amaro st'ammore
Costa caro e niente te pò dà
E lava sti mane
L'acqua fresca che vene e va
È amaro st'ammore
Che nun parla e nun se fa sentì
E nu cielo e stagione
Passa, guarda e già se ne va

Capinera tene 'e figli e 'e manna a scola
Ogni juorno 'e va a piglià
L'aspetta sott' 'e scale
Miezojuorno adda sunà
Quann'è 'a sera a lietto s'è guarda
Cu l'uocchie s'e magna'e vulesse vasà
Ma fa chiano no nun'è scetà
E chiano le stuta 'a luce

È ammaro st'ammore
Costa caro e niente te po' dà
E lava sti mane
L'acqua fresca che vene e va
È ammaro st'ammore
Che nun parla e nun se fa sentì
E nu cielo e tempesta
È n'orchestra che te fa ballà

Capinera

Capinera washes dishes in the kitchen
But her mind is elsewhere
While washing she looks outside
The ground down below
Capinera bears the name of the song
And she loves to sing it so
But with the hours of toil
Even her voice is fading

She passes in front of the mirror and looks at herself
And sees herself more and more tired as time goes on
It happens that he doesn't even want to touch her anymore
And then she can't wait

This love of mine is bitter
It costs so much and gives nothing in return
And she washes her hands
The cool water that comes and goes
This love of mine is bitter
That doesn't speak and doesn't make itself heard
And a sky that changes with the seasons
Passes by, looks and soon it is gone

Capinera has children and sends them to school
Every day she goes to pick them up
She waits for them under the stairs
The bell will ring at noon
When it's evening, she lies down on the bed and looks at them
She wants to eat them up with her eyes and kiss them
But she is careful not to wake them up
And quietly she puts out the light

This love of mine is bitter
It costs so much and gives nothing in return
And she washes her hands
The cool water that comes and goes
This love of mine is bitter
That doesn't speak and doesn't make itself heard
And a sky that storms
It's an orchestra that makes you dance
