from Volkslieder (Folksongs)

Vo' fa' 'na palazzina alla marina
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Vo' fa', na palazzina alla marina...
E le finestre alle bande del mare,
E dentro ci vo'star sera e mattina
Avede' lo mio amore navigare. 
E vo'vedè' chi gli porge la vela: 
L'arte dell'amor mio la nave mena;
E vo'vedè' chi gli porge la stanga:
L'arte dell'amor mio la nave manda; 
E vo'veder chi gli manda il timone:
L'arte dell'amor mio fa il pescatore.
