Oh, dammi una casa dove i bufali pascolano liberamente
Dove il cervo e l'antilope giocano
Dove raramente si sente una parola scoraggiante
E i cieli non sono nuvoloso tutto il giorno
Home, Mucche alla riscossa
Dove il cervo e l'antilope giocano
Dove raramente si sente una parola scoraggiante
E i cieli non sono nuvolosi tutto il giorno

Quante volte durante la notte in cui il cielo è luminoso
Con la luce delle stelle scintillanti
Sono rimasto stupito chiedendomi mentre guardavo
Se la loro gloria sia superiore alla nostra

Home, Mucche alla riscossa
Dove il cervo e l'antilope giocano
Dove raramente si sente una parola scoraggiante
E i cieli non sono nuvolosi tutto il giorno

Allora dammi una terra dove la sabbia diamante luminoso
Flussi piacevole fino al torrente
Dove il grazioso cigno bianco va scivolando lungo
Come una cameriera in un sogno paradisiaco

Oh, io non cambierei la mia vecchia casa sulla gamma
Dove il cervo e l'antilope giocano
Dove raramente si sente una parola scoraggiante
E i cieli non sono nuvolosi tutto il giorno

Oops. Is the singular of "antilope" "antilopa?"

Well, Michael, here's what Babel fish gave me:
(except the acute accents should be grave accents--I can do them in MS Word but not in Netscape Composer)

La O mi dá una sede
in cui il bufalo vaga,
dove i cervi e l' antilope giocano,
dove é sentito raramente
una parola di scoraggiamento
ed i cieli non sono tutto il giorno nuvolosi.

Here's a compromise:

La O mi dá una sede
Dov' il bufalo vaga,
Dov' il cervo con l'antilope gioca,
Dov' é sentito raramente
Una parola brutta
Ed i cieli sono tutto il giorno clari.

Jim,

The way it's posted in your link, I presume the chorus would be

O casa nella campagna
Dov' i cervi stanno a giocar ...
(and then the rest of the first verse).

If you want to include the antelope, couldn't you say:

O casa nella campagna
Dov' il cervo con [antelope] gioca ... .,
[Provided, of course, that the Italian word for "antelope" has no more than 3 syllables.]

(If you make deer and antelope plural, you'd have to use a longer form of the verb "giocare" and it probably wouldn't fit.)

Whaddya think, Bill?

It might, if you left out the "dove." (It would be understood.)Giannina

(Rita says:) "cervo," plural "cervi," is deer, I think - from Latin cervus? I don't think it would have scanned if they had added the antelopes....

Jim,
One little part is missing, though. The second line of the chorus is "...deer and antelope play," not "...buffalo roam." Come se dice "deer" and "antelope" in Italiano?

I can't vouch for this, but I found it here:

O CASA NELLA CAMPAGNA

O dammi una casa
dove il buffalo gira
ed i cervi stanno a giocar,
non si sentono mai
una brutta parola
ed il cielo non si oscura mai.

O casa nella campagna...

It starts out
"O da me una casa dov' il buffalo gira, " I think, then something about "una parola brutta..."

C'mon, there's gotta be "qualquno" who knows the song.

I would like these lyrics, too. Does anyone know Italian well enough to translate Home on The Range if they don't already know someone else's translation?

I saw that last night. sounded nice, but I really didn't get the point of the whole commercial. Easiest thing to do would proabably be to tape the ad and play back to transcribe....

There's a Lincoln Navigator SUV television commercial with a Tenor singing "Home on the Range" in Italian. I'd love to have the words in Italian! Does anyone have them?
