Mio zio [English translation]

I put on a red lipstick as a sign of mourning

And a black overcoat

He was a distinguished man, my uncle.

Mother do not cry, swallow and forget

His greedy hands between my legs.

Now he is in the grace of God.

Good little girl, do your counting

More points to whom is not ashamed

Let's play blind man's bluff

So your uncle takes you to the mountains.

We extend the extreme greeting to a pure soul,

A noble example of a father, a friend and a brother

And I feel the deep contempt, their eyes on me

I unveiled the ignoble incest and they did not believe me.

Good little girl, little by little

Quiet, it does not bite and does not run away

Let's play blind man's bluff

So your uncle takes you on vacation.

Good little girl, do your counting

Who seeks something, sooner or later he'll find it

Oh my little joy, do it again

So your uncle takes you to the merry-go-round

So your uncle takes you to the merry-go-round.

I put on a carmine red lipstick

And nothing under my overcoat

In honor of my tormentor.
