Funiculì, Funiculà!

Funiculì, Funiculà!
Aieressera, oì Nanninè,
me ne sagliette, tu saie addò
Addo' 'stu core 'ngrato cchiu'
dispietto farme nun po'!
Addo' lo fuoco coce,
ma si fuie te lassa sta!
E nun te corre appriesso,
nun te struie, 'ncielo a guarda'!...
Jammo 'ncoppa, jammo ja',
funiculi', funicula'!

Ne'... jammo da la terra a la montagna!
no passo nc'e'!
Se vede Francia, Proceta e la Spagna...
Io veco a tte!
Tirato co la fune,
ditto 'nfatto, 'ncielo se va..
Se va comm' 'a lu viento a l'intrasatto,
gue', saglie sa'!
Jammo 'ncoppa, jammo ja',
funiculi', funicula'!

Se n' 'e' sagliuta, oi' ne',
se n' 'e' sagliuta la capa già!
E' gghiuta, po' e' turnata, po' e' venuta...
sta sempe cca'!
La capa vota, vota, attuorno, attuorno,
attuorno a tte!
Sto core canta sempe nu taluorno
Sposammo, oi' ne'!
Jammo 'ncoppa, jammo ja',
funiculi', funicula'!
Do you know
where I got on, yesterday evening, baby?
Where this ungrateful heart
can't be spiteful to me more!
Where the fire burns,
but if you run away it let you go!
And it doesn't run after you,
doesn't tire you, looking at sky!...
Let go on, let go, let go,
funiculi', funicula'!

We go from the ground to the mountain, baby!
Without walking!
You can see France, Procida and Spain...
I see you!
Pulled by a rope,
no sooner said than done, we go to the skies..
We go like the wind all of a sudden,
go up, go up!
Let go on, let go, let go,
funiculi', funicula'!

The head has already got on,
baby, got on!
It has gone, then returned, then come...
It is still here!
The head turns, turns, around, around,
around you!
This heart always sings one of these days
Get married to me, baby!
Let go on, let go, let go,
funiculi', funicula'!
