Sognu

Sognu di ste labbre
Di sta voce chjara e pura
Mai spentu ricordu di te
Quella notte cui cun te

Sognu, mi lamentu
U moi core, 'n ha primura
Di a vita aspettu dumane
Invinuchjatu, guardu u mare

Spart'u mondu cun te
Ma tu, ti ne vogli'anda
Canteraghju vittoria
Luntanu da te, pensu sempre che
Sei intornu a me, sognu di te

Canteraghju, canteraghju a te
A canzona l'o i me

Piengu e so male
Pregu u celu fin' a more
Cui dai monti, guidi front' a te
Per svegliammi da stu sognu

Se tu mori, eu dino!

English Translation

Dream

I dream of those lips
The voice, clear and pure
I still think of you
That night, there with you

I'm dreaming, but lamenting
And my heart, indifferent
To the life that awaits me tomorrow
I'm kneeling; I look at the sea

I shared the world with you
But you, you didn't want to go
Singing of victory
Far from you, I still think that
You're inside me, I dream of you

I will sing, sing to you
The song of you and me

I cry and I am the worse for it
I will ask the sky until I die
There among the mountains, I will confront you
To awake myself from this dream

If you die, take me!
