La note è bela, Fa presto, o Nineta, Andemo in barcheta I freschi a ciapar! A Toni g'ho dito Ch'el felze el ne cava Per goder sta bava Che supia dal mar. Ah! Che gusto contarsela Soleti in laguna, E al chiaro de luna Sentirse a vogar! Ti pol de la ventola Far senza, o mia cara, Chè zefiri a gara Te vol sventolar. Ah! Se gh'è tra de lori Chi troppo indiscreto Volesse da pèto El velo strapar, No bada a ste frotole, Soleti za semo E Toni el so' remo Lè a tento a menar. Ah!

Η νύχτα είναι όμορφη, Ω Νινέττα, βιάσου, Ας πάμε στην βαρκούλα Να νιώσουμε το δροσερό αεράκι! Είπα στον Τόνι Να βγάλει την τέντα Για ν’ απολαύσουμε αυτό το αεράκι Που φυσάει από την θάλασσα. Α! Πόσο ευχάριστο είναι, Μόνοι στην λιμνοθάλασσα Και κάτω απ’ το φωτεινό φεγγάρι Να νιώθουμε το λίκνισμα της βάρκας! Μπορείς να βγάλεις το πέπλο σου, Ω, αγαπημένη μου, Γιατί οι ζέφυροι παραβγαίνουν Στο ποιος θα σε ξεσκεπάσει. Α! Αν ένας απ’ αυτούς Με πολλή αδιακρισία, Θα ήθελε να σηκώσει Το πέπλο απ’ το στήθος σου, Μην δίνεις σημασία σ’ αυτά τα μικροπράγματα Είμαστε ολομόναχοι Και ο Τόνι φροντίζει Γρηγορότερα να κωπηλατεί. Α!
