Caruso [English translation]

Here where the sea shines

And the wind blows strongly

On an old terrace

Before the Gulf of Sorrento

A man embraces a girl

After she had cried

Then he clears his throat

And recommences the song.

I love you very much

So, so much, you know

It is a chain by now

Which warms the blood in the veins, you know.

He saw the lights out in the sea

He thought of the nights in America

But they were only lamps

and the white wake of a propeller.

He felt the pain in the music,

he rose from the pianoforte

But when he saw the moon emerge from a cloud

Even death seemed sweet.

The girl looked into his eyes

Those eyes as green as the sea,

Then all of a sudden a tear came out,

And he believed he was drowning.

I love you very much

So, so much, you know

It is a chain by now

Which warms the blood in the veins, you know.

The power of opera

where every drama is a hoax;

That with a little make-up and with miming

You can become another.

But two eyes that watch you

So close and true

They make you forget the words,

they confuse the thoughts.

Thus does everything become small,

even the nights there in America,

You turn and see your life

As the wake of a propeller.

But yes, it is the life that ends

But he did not think of it so much

In fact he was already feeling happy

And he recommenced his song.

I love you very much

So, so much, you know

It is a chain by now

Which warms the blood in the veins, you know

I love you very much

So, so much you know

It is a chain by now

Which warms the blood in the veins, you know
