Bella

Tenev' na passion' e m' a lassat'
tenev' 'na speranza e s' é perdut'
mi si rimast' tu, tu sulament'
Napul' napul' mia
Napul' bella
bella dint' a 'nu raggio e' sole
bella dint' a 'nu vel' 'e pioggia
bella comm' a na mamma che prega
comm' a 'na sposa felice
Napul' mia si tu
bella te voglio tantu ben'
comm' a 'nu figlio ca ritorn' e dice
levam' a piett sta malincunia
Napul' Napul' Na', Napul' mia
bella, dint' a nu raggio e' sole
bella, din' a nu vel' e pioggia
bella, comm' a na mamma che prega
comm' a 'na sposa felice
Napul' mia si tu
bella, te' voglio tantu ben'
comm' a 'nu figlio ca ritorna e dice
levam' a piett' sta, sta malincunia
Napul' Napul' Na'
Napul' Napul' Na'
Napulella mia
 

Beautiful

I had a passion and it left me
I had hope and it got lost
you're the only thing I have left, only you
Naples, my Naples
Beautiful Naples
Beautiful, inside a ray of sunshine
Beautiful, inside a gentle rain
Beautiful, like a mother who's praying
Like a happy bride
My Naples, You are
Beautiful, I love you so much
Like a son, coming back to you I'm asking for you
to chase away the heavyness inside my heart
Naples, Naples, Naples, my Naples
beautiful, inside a ray of sunshine
beautiful, inside a gentle rain
beautiful, like a mother who's praying
like a happy bride
my Naples, you are
beautiful, I love you so much
like a son, coming back to you I'm asking for you
to chase away the heavyness inside my heart
Naples Naples Naples
Naples Naples Naples
My little Naples (napulella: "my little Naples" or "my sweet Naples" nick/pet-name)

Toelichting van de vertaler:

You couldn't find the lyrics 'cause maybe you were looking for Jimmy Roselli and this is a very old song of neapolitan traditional music.

lyrics from Sergio Bruni's version are here http://wikitesti.com/index.php/Bella

Anyway I'm gonna add lyrics here because there are a couple of different words between this version and the wikipedia's one.

By the way it's not italian it's neapolitan, wich is not a dialect but a recognignized language (the ancient language of the Kingdom of Naples).

Tenev' na passion' e m' a lassat'
tenev' 'na speranza e s' é perdut'
mi si rimast' tu, tu sulament'
Napul' napul' mia
Napul' bella
bella dint' a 'nu raggio e' sole
bella dint' a 'nu vel' 'e pioggia
bella comm' a na mamma che prega
comm' a 'na sposa felice
Napul' mia si tu
bella te voglio tantu ben'
comm' a 'nu figlio ca ritorn' e dice
levam' a piett sta malincunia
Napul' Napul' Na', Napul' mia
bella, dint' a nu raggio e' sole
bella, din' a nu vel' e pioggia
bella, comm' a na mamma che prega
comm' a 'na sposa felice
Napul' mia si tu
bella, te' voglio tantu ben'
comm' a 'nu figlio ca ritorna e dice
levam' a piett' sta, sta malincunia
Napul' Napul' Na'
Napul' Napul' Na'
Napulella mia
