Текст и перевод песни Roberto Alagna - Lu me sciccareddu

Lu me sciccareddu

Avia 'nu sciccareddu
Ma veru sapuritu
A mia mi l'ammazzaru,
Poveru sceccu miu.

Chi bedda vuci avia,
Pareva un gran tenuri
Sciccareddu di lu me cori
Comu iu t'haiu a scurdari.
E quannu cantava facia:
I-ha, i-ha, i-ha,
Sciccareddu di lu me cori
Comu iu t'haiu a scurdari.

Quannu 'ncuntrava un cumpagnu
Subito lu ciarava,
E doppu l'arraspava
Cu granni caritΰ.

Chi bedda vuci avia,
Pareva un gran tenuri
Sciccareddu di lu me cori
Comu iu t'haiu a scurdari.
E quannu cantava facia:
I-ha, i-ha, i-ha,
Sciccareddu di lu me cori
Comu iu t'haiu a scurdari.

Portannulu a bivirari

+ de paroleslu sciccareddumi votu e mi rivotulu muccaturisiciliasi maritau Rosamarranzanataun suculu mi parirosa canta e cuntascusati amiciciuri ciuri
Virennu l'erba vagnata,
Lu mussu 'nzuccaratu
Di 'ntera 'celu spincia.

Chi bedda vuci avia,
Pareva un gran tenuri
Sciccareddu di lu me cori
Comu iu t'haiu a scurdari.
E quannu cantava facia:
I-ha, i-ha, i-ha,
Sciccareddu di lu me cori
Comu iu t'haiu a scurdari.

My Little Donkey

I had a little donkey
He was very gentle
But he was killed,
My poor little donkey.

He had such a beautiful voice,
He sang like a great tenor
Little donkey of my heart
How can I ever forget you.
And when he sang he would go:
Hee-haw, hee-haw, hee-haw,
Little donkey of my heart
How can I ever forget you.

When he met a friend
He would immediately greet him,
And then he would bray
With great affection.

He had such a beautiful voice,
He sang like a great tenor
Little donkey of my heart
How can I ever forget you.
And when he sang he would go:
Hee-haw, hee-haw, hee-haw,
Little donkey of my heart
How can I ever forget you.

When I took him to drink

+ of words my dear little donkey I turn and turn again handkerchiefsicilians married Rosamarranzanataun seed pod that seems rosy to me sing and tell stories forgive me friends flowers
Seeing the wet grass,
His muzzle sugared
Sprang up into the sky.

He had such a beautiful voice,
He sang like a great tenor
Little donkey of my heart
How can I ever forget you.
And when he sang he would go:
Hee-haw, hee-haw, hee-haw,
Little donkey of my heart
How can I ever forget you.
