Diù, ca 'ncielu, dammi cchiù vita
Vogghiu sentiri cchiù affettu
Figghiu miu, quantu si beddu
Sugnu vicinu a tia
Si lu me bammineddu
Dormi cu mama, dormi cu mia
Si la me vita, ti tengu cu la manu
Unn mi sentu cchiù la malatia
Ora ca ci si tu
Sogni d'oru a notti cu la testa su lu cuscinu
Unn mai senti scandatu, unn ti abbannaru
Ma chi beddu suspiri
Unn ti lassu cianciri
Translation English
My Father, who is in the sky, give me more life
I want to feel more affection
My son, how handsome you are
I am close to you, you are my little baby
Sleep with mummy, sleep with me
You are my life, I take you by the hand
I don't feel anymore sickness, now that you're here
Sweet dreams at night with your head on the cusion
Don't ever feel scared, I won't abandon you
What sweet sighs, I won't let you cry
