’U pisci spada

1Chist’è ’na storia d’un pisci spada,storia d’ammuri.

‟Daje, daje, lu vitti, lu vitti, lu vitti,pigghja la fiocina, accidilu, aah!”

Te pigghjar’ la fimminedda,drittu drittu ’ntra lu cori,e chiancia di duluri:‹ahi ahi, ahi ahi ahi›.E la varca la strascinava,e lu sangu ni curria,e lu masculu chiancia:«ahi ahi, ahi ahi ahi».

E lu masculu paria mpazzutu.Ni dicia:«Bedda mia, nu chianciri, bedda mia nu chianciri, dimmi tia c’aju fari.»Rispunnia la fimminedda,cu nu filu filu ’e vuci:‹Scappa, scappa, ammuri miu, ca si no t’accidinu.›«Noni noni noni ammuri miu,si tie mori, vogghju muriri ansieme a tia,si tie mori, ammuri miu vogghju muriri.»

Cu nun sartu si truau cu issa,cucchiu cucchiu, core a core,e accussì finiu l’ammuridi do pisci sfurtunati.

‟Daje, daje, lu vitti, lu vitti, lu vitti,c’è puru lu masculu,pigghja la fiocina, accidilu, accidilu, aah!”

Chist’è ’na storia d’un pisci spada,storia d’ammuri.

The Swordfish

1This is the story of a swordfish,a love story.

‟Come on, come on, I’ve seen it, I’ve seen it, I’ve seen it,take the harpoon, kill it, aah!”

They took your female,straight through her heart,and she was crying with her pain:‹ow ow, ow ow ow.›And the boat was dragging her,and the blood was flowing from her,and the male was crying:«ow ow, ow ow ow.»

And the male seemed crazed.He was saying:«Don’t cry, my sweetheart, don’t cry, my sweetheart, tell me what I should do.»The female answered,in a very feeble voice:‹Flee, flee, my love, otherwise they’ll kill you.›«No no no, my love,if you die, I want to die with you,if you die, my love, I want to die.»

With a leap he was on her side,up close, heart to heart.and like this it ended,the love between two unlucky fish.

‟Come on, come on, I’ve seen it, I’ve seen it, I’ve seen it,there’s the male, too,take the harpoon, kill it, aah!”

This is the story of a swordfish,a love story.
