O Surdato ‘Nnammurato
Italian source: Aniello Califano (1870 - 1919

Staje luntana da stu core
e a te volo cu 'o penziero:
niente voglio e niente spero
ca tenerte sempe a ffianco a me!
Si' sicura 'e chist'ammore
comm'i' so' sicuro 'e te...

Oje vita, oje vita mia...
oje core 'e chistu core...
si' stata 'o primmo ammore...
e 'o primmo e ll'ùrdemo sarraje pe' me!

Scrive sempe e sta' cuntenta:
io nun penzo che a te sola...
Nu penziero mme cunzola,
ca tu pienze sulamente a me...
'A cchiù bella 'e tutt'e bbelle,
nun è maje cchiù bella 'e te!

Oje vita...
