O mio babbino caro, (My dear father,)
mi piace, è bello, bello. (I like him, he's beautiful, beautiful.)
Vo'andare in Porta Rossa (I want to go to Porta Rossa)
a comperar l'anello! (and buy the ring!)
Sì, sì, ci voglio andare! (Yes, yes, I want to go!)
e se l'amassi indarno, (And if my love is in vain,)
andrei sul Ponte Vecchio, (I would go upon Ponte Vecchio)
ma per buttarmi in Arno! (only to jump in the Arno!)
Mi struggo e mi tormento! (I long for him and torment myself!)
O Dio, vorrei morir! (O God, I'd like to die!)
Babbo, pietà, pietà! (Father, have pity, have pity!)
Babbo, pietà, pietà! (Father, have pity, have pity!)
