GUEST,Régine Lyr Req: Song in Sicilian (lullaby?) (5) Lyr Req: Song in Sicilian (lullaby?) 02 Nov 06


Can some-one help me with the translation of these Sicilian song (in English and in Italian). I think it is a lullaby. The music is very sweet.

Grazie!

Annuzza bedda
Testo e musica di Carlo Muratori

Criri criri Annuzza bedda,
ca lu munnu è 'na vanedda,
d'unni si affacciata tu :
zoccu passa 'n torna chiù

Si tu ridi 'n suli russu
ti cumpari 'ntra lu mussu.
Quannu chianci, amuri miu,
'n celu chianci macari Diu

E stasira l'aria è fina,
c'è la brizza da marina;
puru la luna 'n celu chianò...
Dormi figghia e fa' la vò.

Dormi dormi Annuzza bedda
ca lu munnu è'na cruvedda.
C'è lu marciu e c'è la virtù :
Quannu crisci cci si puru tu.
