Via del campo [English translation]

Country Lane, there is a beauty

with big, leaf coloured eyes

Spends all night on the threshold

Sells the same rose to all

Country Lane, there is a girl

Her lips are rouge coloured

Her eyes grey like the street

Flowers grow where she walks by

Country Lane, there is a whore

with big, leaf coloured eyes

If you feel like loving her

merely take her by the hand

And it seems like you are going far

She glances at you with a smile

You didn't believe that paradise

was only on the first floor

Country Lane, there goes a fool

To plead her to get married

To watch her go up the stairs

Until the balcony door is closed

Love and laugh, if love replies

weep loudly if it doesn't hear you

out of diamonds nothing grows

out of manure the flowers bloom

out of diamonds nothing grows

out of manure the flowers bloom
