Reginella Campagnola

Country Queen
At dawn when the sun rises
There in Abruzzo all golden
The prosperous country girls
Descend the valleys in bloom
Oh beautiful country girl
You are the country queen
In your eyes there is the sun
There is the color of violets
Of the valleys all in bloom
If you sing your voice
Is a harmony of peace
That spreads and says:
"if you want to live happily
You must live up here"
When there's a celebration, from the little village
With her basket she goes
Trotting along the little donkey
She takes it to the city
Oh beautiful country girl
You are the country queen
In your eyes there is the sun
There is the color of violets
Of the valleys all in bloom
If you sing your voice
Is a harmony of peace
That spreads and says:
"if you want to live happily
You must live up here"
But then, in the evening at sunset
With her friends she goes
And all intent on telling
What they have seen there in the city
Oh beautiful country girl
You are the country queen
In your eyes there is the sun
There is the color of violets
Of the valleys all in bloom
If you sing your voice
Is a harmony of peace
That spreads and says:
"if you want to live happily
You must live up here"
If you sing your voice
Is a harmony of peace
That spreads and says:
"if you want to live happily
You must live up here"
