o mio babbino caro
Select language to translate this lyric
Oh my dear father,
I like it, it's beautiful, beautiful;
I want to go to Porta Rossa
to buy the ring!
Yes, yes , I want to go!
And if I loved her in vain,
I would go to the Ponte Vecchio,
But to throw myself into the Arno!
I am pining and tormenting myself!
O God , I would like to die!
Daddy, have mercy, have mercy!
Daddy, have mercy, have mercy!
(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
