O mio babbino caro,

mi piace è bello, bello;

vo andare in Porta Rossa

a comperar l anello!

Sì, sì, ci voglio andare!

e se l amassi indarno,

andrei sul Ponte Vecchio,

ma per buttarmi in Arno!

Mi struggo e mi tormento!

O Dio, vorrei morir!



Babbo, pietà, pietà!

Babbo, pietà, pietà!



(translation)



Oh dear daddy

I love him, he is so handsome

I want to go to Porta Rossa

to buy the ring

Yes, yes, I want to go there

and if my love were in vain

I would go to Ponte Vecchio

and throw myself in the Arno

I fret and suffer torments

oh God, I would rather die

Daddy, have pity, have pity
