Piscatore 'E Pusilleco

Fisherman of this sea of Pusilleco
who every night I hear singing
fisherman, these words are bitter
for Maria who is far away from me!

The sea sleeps...quiet, quiet
All peace around me...
But why,
why did you leave me
while I die, tonight, for you?

Cassarella of the Cape of Pusilleco,
the moon rises and comes to kiss you
How many nights I have lost
watching,
how many days I have seen dawn!

The sea sleeps...quiet, quiet
All peace around me...
But why,
why did you leave me
while I die, tonight, for you?

Quiet today, heart, that in Pusilleco's land,
I see a shadow that makes me a sign
A hand and a voice
call me:
between these arms, Maria wants to return
The sea sleeps...Tonight beauty comes
in the sky the moon rises and goes.

My life!
My life, you love me
That sleep and dream do not make me forget.
The sea sleeps...quiet, quiet
