Stizzoso, mio stizzoso
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Available translation(s): ENG
Stizzoso, mio stizzoso,
Voi fate il borioso,
Ma nò, ma non vi può giovare;
Bisogna al mio divieto
star cheto, cheto,
E non parlare,
Zitt! ... Zitt!...
Serpina vuol così.
Zitt! ... Zitt!...
Serpina vuol così.
Cred'io che m'intendete, si,
che m'intendete, si,
Dacchè mi conoscete
son molti e molti dì.

Irascible, my irascible
Language: English  after the Italian (Italiano)
Irascible, my irascible,
you behave with arrogance,
but no! it won't help your position.
You must keep to my prohibitions
and keep silent,
and not talk,
Shut up! ... shut up! ...
These are Serpina's commands.
Shut up! ... shut up! ...
These are Serpina's commands.
Now I think you have understood,
Yes, you have captured the message,
Because already a long time has passed
from when you first made acquaintance with me.
