Am                Dm   (E7b9)        Am  (E7 Am)
  Speak softly, love, and hold me warm against your heart;        Parla più piano e nessuno sentirà
                                   A7               Dm
  I hear your words, the tender, trembling moments start.                Il nostro amore lo viviamo io
              E7b9            Am     
  We're in a world, our very own,                                        E te nessuno sa la verità
             E7                            Am
  Sharing a love that only few have ever known.                        Neppure il cielo che ci guarda da lassù
  
                G    7              C
  Wine colored days warmed by the sun,                                Insieme a te, Io resterò
                 Bb   Dm            E7
  Deep, velvet nights, when we are one.                                Amore mio, sempre così
  
  Speak softly, love, so no one hears us but the sky.                Parla più piano e vieni più vicino a me
  The vows of love we make will live until we die.                Voglio sentire gli occhi miei dentro di te
              G7b9              Am 
  My life is yours, and all because                                Nessuno sa la verità
             E7                     Am
  You came into my world so softly love.                                E' un grande amore e mai più grande esisterà
  
  [Siciliano]
  Brucia la luna n'cielu, e ju bruciu d'amuri                The moon is burning in the sky the fire that is consumed
  Focu ca si consuma, comu lu me cori                        Like my heart my soul crys painfully
  L'anima chianci, addulurata                                I'm not at peace what a terrible night
  Non si da paci, ma cchi mala nuttata
          
  Lu tempu passa, ma non agghiorna                        The time passes but there is no dawn
  Non c'e mai suli, s'idda non torna                        There is no sunshine if she doesn't return
  
  Brucia la terra mia, e abbrucia lu me cori                My earth is burning and my heart is burning
  Cchi siti d'acqua idda, e ju siti d'amuri                What she thirsts for water a thirst for love
  Acu la cantu, la me canzuni                                Who will I sing my song to
  Si no c'e nuddu, ca s'a affacia, a lu barcuni                If there is no one who shows herself on the balcony
