Caro pittore,
'Mméscale cu 'o penniello sti culure...
Pròvate a fá nu quadro di valore:
Píttace na matassa 'e seta nera,
Píttace doje curvine, scure scure...
Na fravula zucosa...
E na schiuppata 'e rose, rose thè!
Chist'è 'o ritratto,
'O ritratto 'e nanninella:
Suspire e vase ardente,
Prumesse e giuramente,
Bellezze e vanitá!
Chistu ritratto
Io ce 'o manno a nanninella...
Che fa si mm'ha lassato?
Si 'ammore, mo, è fernuto?...
Chistu ritratto
Nce ll'aggia manná!
Caro pittore,
'Mméscale cu 'o penniello sti culore...
Pròvate a fá nu quadro di valore:
Píttace na tempesta 'mmiez'ô mare,
Píttace, atturcigliata a ciento core,
Na vipera maligna,
Cu ll'uocchie 'e fuoco, pronta a muzzecá!
Chist'è 'o ritratto....
Chistu ritratto
Io ce 'o manno a nanninella...
Giacché dimane sposa,
Lle voglio fá 'a surpresa:
Chist'è 'o regalo 'e nozze
Ch'aggia fá!
