Pizzicarella mia pizzicarella
Lu caminatu tou pare ca balla

Quantu t’amau t’amau lu core miu
Mo nu te ama chiui se nde scerrau.

Te l’ura ca te vitti te ‘mmirai
Nu segnu fici a ‘mmienzu a l’occhi toi.

Ca quiddhu foi nu segnu particolare
Cu nu te scerri de l’amore toi.

Amore amore ce m’hai fattu fare
De quindici anni m’hai fatta impazzire

De quindici anni m’hai fatta impazzire
De matre e patre m’hai fatta scerrare

Pizzicarella my Pizzicarella
Your walk looks like a dance.

How much my heart loved you!
It no longer does, in fact it's forgotten you.

I admired you when  first I saw you
I  traced a mark between your eyes.

A special mark it was I traced
So as not to forget my love.

Love, love, what did you make me do
At fifteen you drove me crazy.

At fifteen you drove me crazy
You made me forget my mother and father.
