Monastery of Saint Chiara
Tomorrow? But I wish I could leave tonight!I can't stand being far away any longer!
They say all it's left is the sea,
which is the same ad before, that sea of blue...
Monastery of Saint Chiara,1
my heart is so dark,2
but why? Because every night
I think of Naples as it used to be,
I think of Naples as it is now!
Fountain of Capodimonte,
this heart of mine break
when I hear people saying
that this city has gone bad,
but why?
No, it isn't true!
No, I can't believe it!
And this urge to go back to Naples is killing me,
but what can I do?
I'm afraid to go back.
Afraid, yes... what if it was really so?
What if people were telling the truth?
All of Naples' richness was its heart:
they say that's lost, too!
Monastery of Saint Chiara,
confined among four walls
so many honest women,
if they lost their love,
took Jesus as their husband.
Fountain of Capodimonte,
now, if they lose a lover,
they have one hundred more,
so that an innocent woman,
so people say, is nowhere to be found anymore.
No, it isn't true!
No, I can't believe it!
And this urge to go back to Naples is killing me,
but what can I do?
I'm afraid to go back.
Monastery of Saint Chiara,
my heart is so dark,
but why? Because every night
I think of Naples as it used to be,
I think of Naples as it is now!

Black tambourine song
Sometimes I just don't understand what's going on, and what I see I don't belive.A baby was born, and it was black
And his mum named him Ciro (Cyrus)
Yes sir, she named him Ciro.
Yes, you can turn it, turn it however you want, can name him Ciccio (Francis) or 'Ntuno (Anthony), can name him Peppe or Ciro, but the fact is that the baby is black,
most definitely black.
Housewives are gossiping about such affairs, that ain't rare, they occur often, a thousand times
Sometimes just a look is enough, for a woman to remain struck by the blow.
Yes, just take a look, yeah, just a glimpse, yeah
Tough, you can't find who he was, he who aimed and shot precisely,
but he made him black, most definitely black.
A wise man said that we should discuss,
cause that way we bring reason in the topic we are discussing.
Where ever you sow wheat it grows, wheatear it goes good or bad, but wheat is always wheat.
Oh, tell it to your mum, come on,
Oh, but tel me also
Explain how it has gone,
Ciccio, 'Ntuno, Peppe or Ciro,
But the fact is that he is black, black, most definitely black.
Yes, you can turn it, turn it however you want, can name him Ciccio (Francis) or 'Ntuno (Anthony), can name him Peppe or Ciro, but the fact is that the baby is black,
most definitely black.

Donkey
On a lonely white roadbetween the smell and the country air,
a little cart, slowly, goes away.
This donkey does not get tired,
in no hurry, why should he have it?
And this village is far away
where no one has to wait for us.
And pull, pull, pull, oh little donkey,
this cart, you pull it.
And ring, ring, ring the bell,
but those who waited are no longer there.
A lying woman left me,
far from the countryside she is gone.
And pull, pull, pull, oh little donkey,
take me by another road.
Oh good and calm donkey,
you who have always seen embraced,
a promise of marriage,
you heard it too.
She said, 'You are my life
and in the spring we have to get married '.
It wasn't true, it was a lie,
she left, who knows where she is?
And pull, pull, pull, oh little donkey,
........................
On a lonely white road
between the smell and the country air,
a little cart, slowly goes away

Tweaks and kisses don't compromise
And you can fill the country with the pins.
Tweaks and kisses don't compromise
And you can fill the country with the pins.
Listen to me, even in Paradiese a kiss costs 5 Turnese.
'Ah, who desires the excellent safety pins?
Ah, who desires the safety pins, who desires?'
She said: 'My dear, this is a land
Where, if you compromise me, you'll be killed!'

And her lips are like the cherries.
'Ah, who desires the excellent safety pins?

Red moon
I wander absentmindedly, feeling abandoned...My eyes, hidden under the hat,
My hands inside my pockets and the collar liften...
I wander whistling to the stars on the sky...
And the red moon tells me about you,
I ask her if you are waiting for me,
And so she answers: 'if you really want to know,
There is no one here...'
And I call your name, just to see you,
But, everyone talking about you
Responds: 'it's late already! What do you want to know?!
There is no one here!...'
Red moon,
Who will be sincere?
Red moon,
She left the other night,
Without saying goodbye... 1
And I still saying she is waiting for me,
Tonight at three, under the balcony,
And she prays to saints, hoping to see me...
But there is no one here...
A thousand and more dates I've had...
So many cigarettes I've smoked...
Many cups of coffee I've drunk...
So many lovable mouths I've kissed...
And the red moon tells me about you.
- 1. lit. transl: without seeing me.

Eyes that talk
Your eyes, beautiful,Brighter than the stars,
Are blacker than the black,
Are like the two sighs.
Every sigh is burning
But its fire is sweet,
It penetrates into the heart
And doesn't give it peace.
But who can forget you,
Eyes that talk
Without speaking,
Without speaking?
Look at me, yes,
And stop for a moment,
How I say,
How I wish,
How I wish!
They are black, brighter
Than the ebony.
Like a delicate silk
Are the eyes of Concettina.
Always if I look in them
I find in them a passion
Because I'm used
To caressing them with the look.
But who can forget you,
Eyes that talk
Without speaking,
Without speaking?
Look at me, yes,
And stop for a moment,
How I say,
How I wish,
How I wish!
Fragrant flowers and petals,
I don't search too many things!
The most beautiful girl,
Even if she's rich, doesn't fascinate me.
But all the sympathy,
But all my life
Will be in success or go to ruin
Because of eyes of Concettina.
But who can forget you,
Eyes that talk
Without speaking,
Without speaking?
Look at me, yes,
And stop for a moment,
How I say,
How I wish,
How I wish!
