Un uomo onesto, un uomo probo
An honest man, a probo man
Tralalalalla tralallaleru
Tralalalalla
S'innamorò perdutamente
He fell in love
D'una che non lo amava niente
D'una who didn't love him anything
Gli disse, portami domani
He told him, take me tomorrow
Tralalalalla tralallaleru
Tralalalalla
Gli disse, portami domani
He told him, take me tomorrow
Il cuore di tua madre per i miei cani
Your mother's heart for my dogs
Lui dalla madre andò e l'uccise
He went to his mother and killed her
Tralalalalla tralallaleru
Tralalalalla
Dal petto il cuore le strappò
From her chest the heart tore her
E dal suo amore ritornò
And from his love he returned
Non era il cuore, non era il cuore
It wasn't the heart, it wasn't the heart
Tralalalalla tralallaleru
Tralalalalla
Non le bastava quell'orrore
She wasn't enough for that horror
Voleva un'altra prova del suo cieco amore
He wanted another proof of his blind love
Gli disse amor, se mi vuoi bene
She told him love, if you love me
Tralalalalla tralallaleru
Tralalalalla
Gli disse amor, se mi vuoi bene
She told him love, if you love me
Tagliati dei polsi le quattro vene
Cut off the wrists of the four veins
Le vene ai polsi lui si tagliò
The veins on his wrists he cut himself
Tralalalalla tralallaleru
Tralalalalla
E come il sangue ne sgorgò
And as the blood gushed
Correndo come un pazzo da lei tornò
Running like a madman from her he returned
Gli disse lei, ridendo forte
She told him, laughing loudly
Tralalalalla tralallaleru
Tralalalalla
Gli disse lei, ridendo forte
She told him, laughing loudly
L'ultima tua prova sarà la morte
Your last test will be death
E mentre il sangue lento usciva
And as the slow blood came out
E ormai cambiava il suo colore
And by now it changed its color
La vanità, fredda gioiva
Vanity, cold rejoiced
Un'uomo s'era ucciso per il suo amore
A man had killed himself for his love
Fuori soffiava dolce il vento
Outside the wind blew sweetly
Tralalalalla tralallaleru
Tralalalalla
Ma lei fu presa da sgomento
But she was taken by dismay
Quando lo vide morir contento
When he saw him die glad
Morir contento e innamorato
Morir happy and in love
Quando a lei niente era restato
When nothing had remained to her
Non il suo amore, non il suo bene
Not his love, not his good
Ma solo il sangue secco delle sue vene
But only the dry blood of his veins
