Ninna nanna marinare
'Ngopp a varca, miezo o mare
Io te parl e nun respunn
Te si perze miez o suonn

Te vurria magna' de vas
Ma ho paura e te sceta'
Cosi' guarde da luntane
Co' stu core innammurat

Quann aggia' spetta
D'averti questa sera
Co'sta luna quiena?
Quann aggia ' sogna'
Di dirti quanto t'amo
Co' stu' core 'man - ma tu -
sogni qui nel bluuuu...

Ninna nanna marinare
Tu si [bad word] o' mare
vote calm, senza creste
vote tutta na' tempesta

Ma tu suonn d'ate cose
chissa se t'arricuord
Che tra a luna e mieze e stelle
Io t'aspette a braccia aperte

Quann aggia' spetta
D'averti questa sera
Co'sta luna quiena?
Quann aggia ' sogna'
Di dirti quanto t'amo
Co' stu' core 'man - ma tu -
sogni qui nel bluuuu...

Ninna nanna nanna nanna
Ninna nanna nanna nanna

Sleep, sleep sailor
On the boat, in the middle of the sea
I speak to you, but you don't answer
You are lost in your dreams

I want to devour you with kisses
But I am afraid to awaken you
So I gaze at you from afar
With this heart in love

How long must I wait
To have you this evening
With this full moon?
How long must I dream
Of telling you how much I love you
With my heart in my hand?
But you dream in the blue...

Sleep, sleep sailor
You are beautiful like the sea
Sometimes calm without crests
Sometimes just like a storm

But you are dreaming of other things
And who knows if you will remember
That between the moon and the stars
I am waiting for you with open arms

How long must I wait
To have you this evening
With this full moon?
How long must I dream
Of telling you how much I love you
With my heart in my hand?
But you dream in the blue...
