Aissé

Aisséra, Nanniné', mme ne sagliette,
tu saje addó'... Tu saje addó'...
Addó', 'sto core 'ngrato, cchiù dispiette
farme nun pò... Farme nun pò!

Addó' lo ffuoco coce, ma si fuje,
te lassa stá... Te lassa stá.
E nun te corre appriesso e nun te struje
sulo a guardà... Sulo a guardà...

Jammo, jammo, 'ncoppa jammo ja'...
Jammo, jammo, 'ncoppa jammo ja'...
Funiculí-funiculá, funiculí-funiculá...
'Ncoppa jammo ja', funiculí-funiculá...

(Jammo, jammo, 'ncoppa jammo ja'...)
(Jammo, jammo, 'ncoppa jammo ja'...)
(Jammo, jammo, 'ncoppa jammo ja'...)
(Jammo, jammo, 'ncoppa jammo ja'...)

Jammo, jammo, 'ncoppa jammo ja'...
Jammo, jammo, 'ncoppa jammo ja'...
Funiculí-funiculá, funiculí-funiculá...
'Ncoppa jammo ja', funiculí-funiculá...

Jammo, jammo, 'ncoppa jammo ja'...
Jammo, jammo, 'ncoppa jammo ja'...
Funiculí-funiculá, funiculí-funiculá...
'Ncoppa jammo ja', funiculí-funiculá...

'Ncoppa jammo ja', funiculí-funiculá...

English translation
I went
I went

I went up this evening, Nanetta
Do you know where? Do you know where?
Where your hard heart can't reach
With scornful wiles! With scornful wiles!

Where the fire burns, but if you run
You can escape it! You can escape it!
It doesn't chase you nor destroy you
Just by a look. Just by a look.

Come on, come on, To the top we'll go!
Come on, come on, To the top we'll go!
Funiculi-funicula, funiculi-funicula!
To the top we'll go, funiculi-funicula!

(Come on, come on, To the top we'll go...)
(Come on, come on, To the top we'll go...)
(Come on, come on, To the top we'll go...)
(Come on, come on, To the top we'll go...)

Come on, come on, To the top we'll go!
Come on, come on, To the top we'll go!
Funiculi-funicula, funiculi-funicula!
To the top we'll go, funiculi-funicula!

Come on, come on, To the top we'll go!
Come on, come on, To the top we'll go!
Funiculi-funicula, funiculi-funicula!
To the top we'll go, funiculi-funicula!

To the top we'll go, funiculi-funicula!
