Zitto oje core, ca 'nterra Pusilleco,veco n'ombra ca segno mme fa...Na man'lla e na voce mme chi'mmano:fra sti bbracce Maria v?' turn?...

Dorme 'o mare...Oje bella viene!...'Ncielo 'a luna saglie e va...

Dorme 'o mare, voca, vo'!

Ma pecche,ma pecche mm'he lassatomentr'io moro, stannote, pe' te?mentr'io moro, stannote, pe' te?

Fisherman and Pusilleco

Fisherman from the Pusilleco sea!You who hear me singing every night.Fisherman, my words are tears!for Maria who has gone away.

The sea sleeps, come, come!Everything around me is peaceful.

Why?Why did you go away?Leaving me here tonight, to die!

Be still, my heart! I see a shadow.calling to me from Pusilleco!a tiny hand and a voice!Maria is returning to my arms!

The sea sleeps, come back my darling!The moon comes and goes in the sky.

My life!My life! Do you love me?If this is a dream, don't awaken me!

The sea is calm, come! come!

Why?Why did you go away?Leaving me here tonight, to die!Leaving me here tonight, to die!
