O mio babbino caro,My dear father,
mi piace è bello, bello;I like him, he's beautiful, beautiful;
vo'andare in Porta RossaI want to go to Porta Rossa
a comperar l'anello!and buy the ring!
Sì, sì, ci voglio andare!Yes, yes, I want to go!
e se l'amassi indarno,And if my love is in vain,
andrei sul Ponte Vecchio,I would go upon Ponte Vecchio (the old Bridge in Florence),
ma per buttarmi in Arno!only to jump in the Arno (the river in Florence)
Mi struggo e mi tormento!I long for him and torment myself
O Dio, vorrei morir!O God, I'd like to die!
Babbo, pietà, pietà!Father, have pity, have pity!
O mio babbino caro,
mi piace è bello, bello;
vo'andare in Porta Rossa
a comperar l'anello!
Sì, sì, ci voglio andare!
e se l'amassi indarno,
andrei sul Ponte Vecchio,
ma per buttarmi in Arno!
Mi struggo e mi tormento!
O Dio, vorrei morir!
Babbo, pietà , pietà !
Babbo, pietà , pietà !
Oh my dear papa,
I love him, he is handsome, handsome.
I want to go to Porta Rossa
To buy the ring!
Yes, yes, I want to go there!
And if I loved him in vain,
I would go to the Ponte Vecchio,
but to throw myself in the Arno!
I am anguished and tormented!
Oh God, I'd want to die!
Papa, have pity, have pity!
Papa, have pity, have pity!
