by Giuseppe Palomba (flourished 1769-1825)

Ttai, ttai, ttai, llarà, llarà
Language: Italian - Neapolitan (dialect) 
Ttai, ttai, ttai, llarà, llarà,    
accossì ca jammo buono
bravi, viva, dammo a chessa,
doce, doce, senza pressa
ttai, ttai ttai, llarà, la la!
Vì cca vaje no tuono sotto
n'abbordà sta violoncella.
Tu va chià co sto fagotto
ca me pare na vitella.
Forte adesso, jammo unite,
co sti cuorne mme stordite,
accossì tarai tà tà.
Oh che chiasso, che armonie,
oh che prattica, oh che estro
na chiù bella zinfonia
manco Glucco la sa fa.
Dite alò bravo maestro
ca la capo ha da vascià.
 	
TUTTI

Bravo sì, bravo maestro
tutta bella in verità.
