Aissera, oje Nanniné, me ne sagliette tu saje addó, tu saje addó Addó 'stu core 'ngrato cchiù dispietto farme nun pò! Farme nun pò!
te lassa sta! Te lassa sta! E nun te corre appriesso, nun te struje sulo a guardà, sulo a guardà.
Jammo, jammo 'ncoppa, jammo jà funiculì, funiculà, funiculì, funiculà 'ncoppa, jammo jà, funiculì, funiculà!
la capa già! La capa già! È gghiuta, po' è turnata, po' è venuta sta sempe ccà! Sta sempe ccà!
attuorno a tte! Attuorno a tte! Stu core canta sempe nu taluorno Sposamme, oje né! Sposamme, oje né!
Jammo, jammo 'ncoppa, jammo jà funiculì, funiculà, funiculì, funiculà 'ncoppa, jammo jà, funiculì, funiculà!
I climbed up high this evening, oh, Nanetta Do you know where? Do you know where? Where your ungrateful heart no longer pains me With teasing wiles! With teasing wiles!
It lets you be, it lets you be! It doesn't follow after nor torment you Just with a look, just with a look
Let's go, let's go! To the top we'll go! Funiculi, funicula, funiculi, funicula! To the top we'll go, funiculi, funicula!
Right to the top! Right to the top! It went, and turned around, and came back down And now it's stopped! And now it's stopped!
Around yourself! Around yourself! My heart is singing that on such a day We should be wed! We should be wed!
Let's go, let's go! To the top we'll go! Funiculi, funicula, funiculi, funicula! To the top we'll go, funiculi, funicula! |
