Son bella pastorella

Language: Italian (Italiano)

Our translations: CHI ENG SPA

Son bella pastorella,
che scende ogni mattino
ed offre un cestellino 
di fresche frutta e fior.

Chi viene al primo albore
avrà vezzose rose
E poma rugiadose, 
venite al moi gairdin,
ahu, ahu...

Chi del notturno orrore
Smari la buona via, 
alla capanna mia 
ritrovera il cammin.

Venite o passagiero,
La pastorella è qua,
Ma il fior del suo pensiero
Ad uno solo darà!
Ahu, ahu...

La pastorcita de los Alpes

Language: Spanish (Español) after the Italian (Italiano)

 Soy la bella pastorcita
 que baja cada mañana.
 Ofrezco una pequeña cesta
 de fresca fruta y flores.
  
 Quienquiera que baja en la madrugada
 Tendrá unas lindas rosas
 y manzanas bañadas en rocío.
 Vengan a mi jardín
 Ahu, Ahu....
  
 Quienquiero que en el miedo de la noche
 pierda su camino
 en mi pequeña cabaña
 encontrará su camino de nuevo.
  
 Ven, o pasajero
 La pastora está aquí
 Pero que sus tiernos pensamientos
 dirige a sólo uno!
 Ahu, ahu...
