Has anyone heard this song? I first heard it in Mean Streets, and I love it. Though I don't understand any of it, are there any Italian-speakers here who have heard it and understand it? If so, are there any translations of it...couldn't find any myself.

It's a classic Neapolitan folk song. Listen to it here:

http://www.content.loudeye.com/scripts/hurl.exe?clipid=083745702130006900&cid=600109

Here are the lyrics:

Scapricciatiello mio, vattenne 'a casa

Si nun vuò i'ngalera, int'a 'stu mese


Comme te l'aggia di ca nun è cosa,

chella nun è pe'tte, chella è 'na 'mpesa

che vene a di ca è bella cchiù 'e 'na rosa

si po'te veco 'e chiagnere annascuso?

Lassala, siente a me, ca nun è cosa


Tu p''a bionda si troppo onesto

chella è nnata pe'll'ommo'nzisto

alluntanate á sta "maesta"

ca te pierde figlio "e mammà"

Nun 'o vvice ca te repassa?

Te ciancea cu ciento mosse

t'o ffa credere e po'te lassa,

te fa perdere 'a libertà!


Tutte 'e mattine

mamma dinto 'a Cchiesa

prega pe ttè a Madonna

e num reposa!

Jette'o curtiello, nun fa'o smaniuso,

si no tu vaie 'ngalera e 'a bionda sposa!

Curre add'a vecchia, va, cercale scusa.


Tu p''a bionda...


Ntra la porta tua lu sangu � sparsu,
E nun me mporta si ce muoru accisu...
E s'iddu muoru e vaju mparadisu
Si nun ce truovo a ttia, mancu ce trasu.

Cool, thanks Turnbull. Do you know of any English Translation?
