'A sonnambula [English translation]

Carmela is a nice girl

And she is my girlfriend...

But her mom is unbearable,

She doesn't want me to meet her daughter...

And then I've found

One good fact:

Carmela pretends to be a sleepwalker

To come to see me...

And she makes a fool of her mom.

And under pretense of being a sleepwalker

What does this girl do?

Every night to the ledge

She goes out for a walk at eleven o'clock.

To the ledge I also go out

And I tell her: "I'm here for you".

And a sleepwalker

Is this girl,

She pretends to be a sleepwalker

In my arms.

Her father, Don Arcangelo,

He doesn't give his consent to spite me.

He dislikes me

And he (has) said "no" to me.

But who cares?

I leave my door open.

Carmela, as usual,

Comes to console me

And she makes a fool of her dad.

And under pretense of being a sleepwalker

What does this girl do?

Every night to the ledge

She goes out for a walk at eleven o'clock.

To the ledge I also go out

And I tell her: "I'm here for you".

And a sleepwalker

Is this girl,

She pretends to be a sleepwalker...

In my arms.

INSTRUMENTAL

To the ledge I also go out

And I tell her: "I'm here for you".

And a sleepwalker

Is this girl,

She pretends to be a sleepwalker...

In my arms.

And a sleepwalker

Is this girl,

She pretends to be a sleepwalker...

In my arms.
