Mandolin-playing in Sorrento -- Mandulinata a Surriento,
mandolin-playing for who gets married -- mandulinata a chi sposa,
under this silvery moon -- sott'a 'sta luna d'argiento
that in this fragrant water -- ca 'e 'st'acqua addurosa,
wants to be reflected -- 'nu specchio vò fà.
Go, discontented heart -- Va', core scuntento!
Go find yourself a hideaway in Sorrento -- Va', te trova 'nu nido a Surriento,
where mandolins put you to sleep -- addò t'addormono 'sti manduline,
where the gardens -- addò 'e ciardine
give orange-tree flowers for contentment -- danno sciure 'arancio p' 'a felicità.
This life is also (like) a seaway -- Pure 'sta vita è 'nu mare.
An open water is (like) love too -- pure 'nu mare è ll'ammore:
The waves are dark and are light -- Ll'onne sò cupe e sò chiare,
But the pains of the heart -- Ma 'e ppene d' 'o core
can be forgotten -- Se ponno scurdà.
Go, discontented heart -- Va', core scuntento!
Go find yourself a hideaway in Sorrento -- Va', te trova 'nu nido a Surriento,
where mandolins put you to sleep -- addò t'addormono 'sti manduline,
where the gardens -- addò 'e ciardine
give orange-tree blossoms for bliss -- danno sciure 'arancio p' 'a felicità.
And lullaby, Sorrento -- E nonna nonna, Surriento.
This mandolin-playing is sweet -- Doce è 'sta mandulinata!
Under this silvery moon -- Sott'a 'sta luna d'argiento
a sleepless couple -- 'na coppia scetata
must not stay -- nun ha da restà.
Go, discontented heart -- Va', core scuntento!
Go find yourself a hideaway in Sorrento -- Va', te trova 'nu nido a Surriento,
where mandolins put you to sleep -- addò t'addormono 'sti manduline,
where the gardens -- addò 'e ciardine
give orange-tree blossoms for happiness -- danno sciure 'arancio p' 'a felicità.
