Our translations: ENG FRE GRE SPA

No corè, puti, 
smaniosi tanto
Drio quel incanto
Che Nana g'ha
Xe tuto amabile
Ve acordo, in ela,
La xe una stela
Cascada qua
Ma... ma... La Nana cocola
G'ha el cuor tigrà.

L'ocio xe vivo
Color del cielo,
Oro el cavelo
Balsamo el fià;
Ghe sponta in viso
Do' rose intate.
Invidia al late
Quel sen ghe fa
Ma... ma... La Nana cocola
G'ha el cuor tigrà.

Ogni ochiadina
Che la ve daga,
Da qualche piaga
Voda no va!
Col so' granelo
De furbaria
La cortesia
Missiar la sa...
Ma... ma... La Nana cocola
G'ha el cuor tigrà.

L'avertissement

Language: French (Français) after the Italian - Venetian (dialect)

Ne courez pas, jeunes gens
Avec autant d'impatience
derrière ce charme
qu'a Nana.
Tout est aimable,
Je vous l'accorde, en elle,
C'est une étoile
Tombée ici bas
Mais... mais... La Nana câline
A un cœur de tigresse.
  
Son œil est vif,
Couleur du ciel,
D'or, ces cheveux
Embaumé son souffle ;
Sur son visage naissent
Deux roses intactes.
Son sein rend
Le lait jaloux
Mais... mais... La Nana câline
A un cœur de tigresse.
 
Chaque œillade
Qu'elle vous décoche
N'est pas sans laisser
Quelque souffrance !
Avec un grain
De fourberie
à la courtoisie
elle sait mêler...
Mais... mais... La Nana câline
A un cœur de tigresse.
