Nuttata 'e sentimento [English translation]

What a night! What a night!

What a moon! What a sea!

Tonight it seems to me that

I'm in a waking dream.

This quiet air

That takes out from my heart

The sighs of love,

Doesn't make me sleep!

The moon is bright,

The wind is soft,

The sea is calm,

Oh, Caroline!

This night of feeling

Is not for sleeping!

Far away, far away

In the blue sea

I would like to dream

On your breast.

A sweet dream,

A fascinating dream:

Embraced by you,

dreaming, to die.

The moon is bright,

The wind is soft,

The sea is calm,

Oh, Caroline!

This night of feeling

Is not for sleeping!

More beautiful and sweeter

This night would be

If you, my sweetheart,

came to my boat,

A love story

I'll tell you it if you come,

If I'm dear to you,

Answer me: yes!

The moon is bright,

The wind is soft,

The sea is calm,

Oh, Caroline!

This night of feeling

Is not for sleeping!
