Vaco distrattamente abbandunato...
Ll'uocchie sott'o cappiello annascunnute
mane 'int'a sacca e bavero aizato...
Vaco siscanno e stelle ca so'asciute...
E'a luna rossa mme parla 'e te
io lle domando si aspiette a me,
e mme risponne: "Si 'o vvuo'sape,
cca nun ce esta nisciuna..."
E io chiammo 'o nomme pe'te vede,
ma, tutt'a gente ca parla 'e te,
risponne: "E tarde che vuo'sape?!
Cca nun ce sta nisciuna!..."
Luna rossa,
chi mme sarra sincera?
Luna rossa,
se n'e ghiuta ll'ata sera
senza mme vede...
Mille e cchiu appuntamente aggio tenuto...
Tante e cchiu sigarette aggio appicciato...
Tanta tazze 'e cafe mme so' bevuto...
Mille vucchelle amare aggio vasato...
E'a luna rossa mme parla 'e te
Io lle domando si aspiette a me,
e mme risponne: "Si o vvuo' sape,
cca nun ce sta nisciuna..."
E io chiammo 'o nomme pe'te vede
ma, tutt'a gente ca parla 'e te,
risponne: "E tarde che vuo'sape?!
Cca nun ce sta nisciuna!..."
E io dico ancora ch'aspetta a me,
for'o barcone stanott'e ttre,
e prega 'e Sante pe'mme vede...
Ma nun ce sta nisciuna...

Red Moon
I walk along unthinking and alone
My cap pulled down to hide my eyes
Hands in my pockets and collar turned up
I walk along whistling at the stars that have come out
And the red moon talks to me about you
I ask if you are waiting for me
and it answers: "If you really want to know,
here, there is no one..."
And I call your name to see you
but everyone who is talking about you
is answering: "It's late, what do you want to know?
here, there is no one!...
Red moon,
who will be sincere to me?
Red moon,
she went away the other night
without seeing me...
I've had more than a thousand dates
So many and more cigarettes I've smoked
So many and more cups of coffee I've drunk
A thousand bitter lips I've kissed
And the red moon talks to me about you
I ask if you're waiting for me
and it answers: "If you really want to know,
here, there is no one..."
And I call your name to see you
but everyone who's talking about you
answers: "It's late, what do you want to know?!
Here, there is no one!..."
And I say that still she's waiting for me,
Out on the balcony tonight at three
and she's praying to the Saints to see me...
But there is no one...
