Tre giorni son che Nina
In letto se ne sta.
Il sonno l'assassina
Svegliatela, per pietà!

E cimbali e timpani e pifferi,
Svegliatemi Ninetta
Perchè non dorma più

E mentre il sior dottore
A visitarla va,
Ninetta per amore
In letto se ne sta.

Nina
Language: Portuguese (Português)  after the Italian (Italiano) 
Já há três dias Nina
No leito está.
O sono a assassina.
Acordem-na, por piedade!

E címbalos e tímpanos e pífaros, 
Acordem Ninetta para mim
Para que ela não durma mais.

E enquanto o senhor doutor
Vai visitá-la
Ninetta, por estar apaixonada
No leito está.
