Brucia la luna n'cielu

e ju bruciu d'amuri.

Focu ca si consuma

comu lu me cori.

L'anima chianci,

addulurata,

non si da paci.

Ma cchi mala nuttata!

Lu tempu passa

ma non agghiorna.

Non c'e mai suli

s'idda non torna.

Brucia la terra mia

e abbrucia lu me cori.

Cchi siti d'acqua idda

e ju siti d'amuri.

Acu la cantu

la me canzuni

si no c'e nuddu

ca se affacia a lu barcuni.

Brucia la luna n'cielu

e ju bruciu d'amuri....

Burning is the moon in the sky

And I am burning of love

The fire is almost consumed

Like my heart

The soul cries

In pain

There's no peace

What a terrible night!

The time passes

But there is no dawn

There is no sunshine

If she doesn't return

My earth is burning

And also is burning my heart

She thirsts for water

And i thirst for love

Who will i sing

My song

If don't know of nobody

Who shows herself to the balcony

Burning is the moon in the sky

And I am burning of love...
