Lyrics & English Translation

O Lola, white and red as the cherry
In your nightdress white as milk,
When you appear at the window you smile;
Happy he who gave you your first kiss!
The mark of blood is over your door,
But I care not if I am killed;
If through you I die and go to Paradise,
It will not be Paradise for me unless you are there.
Ah!

Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo:

TURIDDU
O Lola, bianca come fior di spino,
Quando t'affacci te s'affaccia il sole;
Chi t'ha baciato il labbro porporino
Grazia più bella a Dio chieder non vôle
C'è scritto sangue sopra la tua porta;
Ma di restaci a me non me n'inporta;
Se per te mojo e vado in paradiso,
Non c'entro se non vedo il tuo bel viso
Ah!

English Libretto or Translation:

TURIDDU

O Lola, white as a flower of thorns,
When you look out at you, the sun looks out;
Who kissed your purple lip
Grace more beautiful to God ask not vôle
Blood is written on your door;
But to stay with me I do not mind;
If for you mojo and I go to heaven,
No way if I do not see your beautiful face
Ah!
