Chi chilichi? Cucurucu! | |||

U, sportunata, me Lucia! | |||
Non sienta Martina galla cantara? | |||
Lassa canta, possa clepare! | |||
Porca te, piscia sia cicata! | |||
Ia dormuta, tu scitata. | |||
Ba con dia, non bo più per namolata. | |||
Tutta la notte tu dormuta | |||
Mai a me tu basciata | |||
Cucurucu! Cucurucu! | |||
Che papa la sagna | |||
Metter’ ucelli entr’ a gaiola | |||
Cucurucu, cucurucu! | |||
Leva da loco, Piglia Zampogna | |||
Va sonando per chissa cantuna. | |||
Lirum li, lirum li | |||
«Sona, se vuoi sonare» | |||
Lassa carumpa canella | |||
Lassa Martina, Lassa Lucia! | |||
U, madonna, aticilum barbuni | |||
U, macera catutuni, | |||
Sona, son’o non gli dare, | |||
Lirum li, lirum li. | |||
(La mogliere del peccoraro: | |||
Sette pecore a no danaro: | |||
Se ce fussa Caroso mio | |||
Cinco peccore a no carlino:) | |||
Auza la gamba, madonna Lucia | |||
Sauta no poco con mastro Martino. | |||

"Who's crowing chilichi? - "Cucurucu" | |||
"O, unhappy, o, miserable, | |||
O, unfortunate me, Lucia! | |||
Don't you hear Martino your cock singing?" | |||
"Struth, your song can go to hell, | |||
You pig, you shitface! | |||
I was asleep, now you've woken me! | |||
Go with God, I am not in love any longer. | |||
You slept all night long, | |||
Never once did you give me a kiss." | |||
"Cucurucu, cucurucu!" | |||
"If Papa knew, | |||
Birds like you would land in jail. | |||
"Cucurucu, cucurucu!" | |||
"Get away from here, go and squeeze your bagpipe, | |||
Go and sing your song to someone else." | |||
"lirum lirum… li!" | |||
"(Then play if you want to!)" | |||
"Oh, for pity's sake, you dog! | |||
Alas, Martino, alas, Lucia! | |||
O, My Lady, to thy heaven, | |||
O, grind it up. | |||
"Play, play, but don't give him anything!" | |||
Lirum li, lirum li. | |||
The shepherd's wife | |||
Has seven sheep and no money; | |||
If it was my beloved, | |||
There'd be five sheep and not a farthing. | |||
Raise your leg, my lady Lucia | |||
Reach me your hand, take the bagpipe, | |||
Have a good romp with Master Martino! | |||
Lirum, lirum li… | |||

A COCK: Cock-a-doodle-do? Cock-a-doodle-do! | |||
LUCIA: O woe is me, woe is me, | |||
O poor Lucia! | |||
Martino, don't you hear the cock crowing? | |||
MARTINO: Let him crow, may he die, | |||
you bitch, you pisser, I only wish you'd go blind! | |||
I was asleep and you woke me up. | |||
The devil take you, you're bothering me. | |||
LUCIA: You slept all night | |||
without making love to me a single time. | |||
A COCK: Cock-a-doodle-do! Cock-a-doodle-do! | |||
MARTINO: If the Pope heard about it, | |||
he'd have that bird put in a cage. | |||
A COCK: Cock-a-doodle-do! Cock-a-doodle-do! | |||
LUCIA: Away with you, | |||
take your pipes | |||
and go play somewhere else. | |||
Lirum, lirum, li. | |||
MARTINO: Well, play if you want to play, | |||
But watch out for the pipe. | |||
Poor old Martino! | |||
LUCIA: Poor Lucia. | |||
MARTINO: O, my lovely one. | |||
LUCIA: Go and get stuffed! | |||
MARTINO: My little pussy! | |||
Go on then, either play or leave me alone. | |||
Lirum, lirum li. | |||
'The shepherd's wife | |||
wanted a penny for seven sheep; | |||
if it had been my little loved one, | |||
it would have been a pug for five sheep.' | |||
Lift up your legs, fair Lucia, | |||
stretch out your hand and touch my pipe, | |||
dance a little with Master Martino(*), | |||
Lirum, lirum, li. | |||
(*) in dialect, Master Martino was a synonym for male genitalia. | |||
