Description
The Grand Master of Neapolitan Song can bring out the beauty of this old and distinguished musical literature like no one else. The following is not a literal translation, but rather a précis of the text.
Our peace and sleep are troubled,
But we never say why.
Our lips seem not to want kisses......
I call out to you, but you will not respond.
Let us hold on at least to what we have,
And never leave it.
This desire for you frightens me!
I want to live always with you,
Always with you....so I CAN live!
Why do we say bitter words to one another,
When we can have so much with just a breath, a few good words?
If you suffer from this love as I do,
Let us come together and hold each other tight,
Heart and soul!
