Texts of the Neapolitan songs

Pe' dint' a ll'ombra va 'stu core
Ca nun pò durmì
E canta e chiagne: "Ammore, Ammore,
Tu me faje murì!"
Ma si tu siente 'sta voce 'e tremmà,
No, nun me credere,
Nun t'affaccià!

Io mò nun canto pe' tte,
Canto pe' 'n'ata.
Va, nun te voglio vedè
Comm' a 'na vota.
Tu nun sì niente pe' mme,
Niente pe' mme!
Nun saccio cchiù
Che nomme tiene tu,
Marì!

'Nu raggio 'e sole vò 'stu core
Ca nun vò suffrì.
'N'aria serena vò 'st'ammore
Ca nun vò murì.
'St'aria serena e 'stu sole sì tu!
Nun me fà perdere
'Sta giuventù!

'Sta luna 'argiento pe' tte
Suspira ancora.
Cchiù luce 'ncielo pe' mme
'Na stella d'oro.
Io campo e moro pe' tte,
Moro pe' tte!
Te voglio bbene, sì,
Surtanto a tte,
Marì!

Te voglio tutta pe' mme,
Tutta pe' mme!
Te voglio bbene, sì,
Surtanto a tte,
Marì!

In the shadow my heart hides
And can't fall asleep
And sings and cries: "My love, my love,
You make me die!"
But if you hear my trembling voice,
No, don't believe me,
Don't look out!

Now I'm not singing for you,
I'm singing for another girl.
Go, I don't want to see you
Like once I did.
You mean nothing to me,
Nothing to me!
I don't know anymore
What your name is,
Maria!

A ray of sun wants to warm my heart
That doesn't want to suffer.
The serene air wants to save my love
That doesn't want to die.
This serene air and sun it's you!
Don't make me lose
My youth!

This silver moon
Longs for you.
A golden star shines brighter
In the sky for me.
I live and die because of you,
I die because of you!
I still love you, yes,
Only you,
Maria!

I wish you were only mine,
Only mine!
I still love you, yes,
Only you,
Maria!
