Je m'embarquerai, si tu le veux
Language: French (Français)
Je m'embarquerai, si tu le veux, Comme un gai marin quittant la grève, Sur les flots dorés de tes cheveux, Vers un paradis fleuri de rêve. Ta jupe flottante au vent du soir Gonflera ses plis comme des voiles, Et quand sur la mer il fera noir, Tes grands yeux seront mes deux étoiles. Ton rire éclatant de vermillon Fera le fanal de la grand'hune. J'aurai ton ruban pour pavillon Et ta blanche peau pour clair de lune. Nos vivres sont faits et nos boissons Pour durer autant que le voyage. Ce sonts des baisers et des chansons Dont nous griserons tout l'équipage. Nous aborderons je ne sais où, Là-bas, tout là-bas, sur une grève Du beau pays bleu, sous un ciel fou, Dans le paradis fleuri de rêve.

La barca rossa
Language: Italian (Italiano) after the French (Français)
Io mi imbarcherò, se tu vuoi, Come un allegro marinaio che lascia la riva, Sulle onde dorate dei tuoi capelli, Verso un paese dove sbocciano i sogni. La tua gonna fluttuante al vento della sera Gonfierà le sue pieghe come vele, E quando sul mare farà sera I tuoi grandi occhi saranno le mie due stelle. La tua risata scintillante di vermiglio Sarà lanterna sulla gran coffa. Avrò il tuo nastro per insegna E la tua bianca pelle per chiaro di luna. I nostri viveri e le bevande sono approntati Per durare l'intero viaggio Sono i baci e le canzoni Di cui inebrieremo tutto l'equipaggio. Approderemo io non so dove, Laggiù, sempre laggiù sulla riva Del bel paese azzurro sotto un cielo folle, Nel paradiso fiorito del sogno.
