Neapolitan lyrics (“Torna a Surriento”)

Vir 'o mare quant’è bello,
Ispira tantu sentimento,
Comme tu a chi tiene a' mente,
Ca scetato 'o faie sunnà.
Guarda gua' chistu ciardino;
Siente, sie’ sti sciure arance:
Nu profumo accussi fino
Dinto 'o core se ne va…
E tu dice: I’ parto, addio!
T’alluntane da stu core…
Da sta terra de l’ammore…
Tiene 'o core 'e nun turnà?
Ma nun me lassà,
Nun darme stu turmiento!
Torna a Surriento,
famme campà!
Vir 'o mare de Surriento,
che tesoro tene nfunno:
chi ha girato tutto 'o munno
nun l'ha visto comm'a ccà.
Guarda attuorno sti Serene,
ca te guardano 'ncantate,
e te vonno tantu bene...
Te vulessero vasà.
E tu dice: I' parto, addio!
T'alluntane da stu core
Da la terra de l'ammore
Tiene 'o core 'e nun turnà?
Ma nun me lassà,
Nun darme stu turmiento!
Torna a Surriento,
Famme campà!


English lyrics (“Come Back to Sorrento”)

Look at the sea, how beautiful it is,
it inspires so many emotions,
like you do with the people you have at heart
you make them dream while they are still awake.
Look at this garden
and the scent of these oranges,
such a fine perfume
it goes straight into your heart.
And you say: I am leaving, goodbye
you go away from my heart
away from this land of love.
And you have the heart not to come back.
But do not go away,
do not give me this pain.
Come back to Surriento,
let me live!
Look at the sea of Surriento,
what a treasure it is!
Even who has travelled all over the world,
he has never seen a sea like this one.
Look at these mermaids,
that stare amazed at you, that love you so much.
They would like to kiss you.
And you say: I am leaving, goodbye,
you go away from my heart,
away from the land of love.
And you have the heart not to come back.
But please do not go away,
do not give me this pain.
Come back to Surriento,
let me live!
