1. Saluto
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Lieve parte dal mio cuore
un'amabile canzone,
risuona, canzoncina di primavera,
risuona via lontano.

Risuona via fino alla casa
dove sbocciano i fiori
e quando vedi la rosa,
dille che io la saluto.

2. Nel meraviglioso mese di maggio
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Nel meraviglioso mese di maggio,
quando tutti i boccioli si schiudevano,
allora nel mio cuore
l'amore è entrato.

Nel meraviglioso mese di maggio,
quando tutti gli uccelli cantavano,
allora ho confessato a lei
il mio struggimento e il mio desiderio.
