Original text and translations

Neapolitan.png Neapolitan text

O Dio, ca fosse ciaola, e ca bolasse
A 'ssa fenesta a ddirte 'na parola,
Ma nun ca mme mettisse a 'na gajola.

E tu da dinto subbeto chiammasse:
Viene, marotta mia, deh viene cola,
Ma nun ca mme mettisse a 'na gajola.

Et io venesse, et huommo returnasse
Comm'era primmo, e te truvasse sola,
Ma nun ca mme mettisse a 'na gajola.

E po' turnasse a lu buon sinno gatta,
Ca mme ne 'scesse pe' la cataratta,
Ma che 'na cosa mme venesse fatta.
