Santa Lucia

The day is ending,
The silver-glinting star
Rises on the wavering
Distant waves,
No more truce!
It's time for pleasure,
Come on! We gotta go,
Let’s leave the shore.
My nimble boat is here,
Already swaying.
Santa Lucia!
Ah! Guide her,
My nimble boat is here,
Already swaying
Santa Lucia!
Santa Lucia!

The breeze is here,
Favorable to our wishes,
In the joyful sails
It floats uncertain.
The gray sail,
Leaning on the waves,
Reminds us right now
Of the Leaning Tower.
Cheerful passengers, hey!
My nimble boat is here.
Santa Lucia
Will guide us,
Cheerful passengers, hey
My nimble boat is here.
Santa Lucia!
Santa Lucia!

Naples so beautiful!
I believe that from your shores
Fell from paradise
A spark!
Your soil glistens,
Your sky always smiles,
You bless love,
Be true to us!
In the Bay of Baia
The wind will push us.
Santa Lucia!
Will guide us,
In the Bay of Baia
The wind will push us.
Santa Lucia!
Santa Lucia!

But everything happens;
When dawn, like elsewhere,
With its mists
Whiten the space,
Changing its course,
We’ll take back in the day
The way back home
That nothing erases.
From the Bay of Baia
My boat will return.
Santa Lucia
Will guide her,
From the Bay of Baia
My boat will return.
Santa Lucia!
Santa Lucia!
