ANONYMOUS – Gargano’s Tarantella
Di rose dee fare nu bellu ciardini
ntorni p'intorni lei annammurari
mezzo ce la cava na brava funtani
e ja ja ca corri l'acqua surgentivi
ncoppa ce lu mette n'auciello a ccantari
cantava e repusava: bella diceva
pe farimi nu sonno accanto a voi bella madonna.
La cammenatura e lu pparlà
Annammurà nun me facivi.
sta ncagnata che vuò da me? Mammeta lu ssape e tu vò dice pure a tte.

I have to make a pretty garden of roses
all around here, to make her fall in love
I'll dig a nice fountain in the middle
where spring water flows
I'll put a songbird on the top
it sung and rested: beauty, it said,
to sleep besides you, beautiful lady.
the way you walk and speak
I wouldn't have fallen in love
you're angry, what do you want from me? your mother knows and I want to tell you too
