Day after day
Language:
English
Day after day he comes and goes away.
Go, and give him a flower from my hair, my friend.
If he asks who it was that sent it,
I entreat you do not tell him my name
For he only comes and goes away.
He sits on the dust under the tree.
Spread there a seat with flowers and leaves, my friend.
His eyes are sad, and they bring sadness to my heart.
He does not speak what he has in mind;
He only comes and goes away.

Giorno per giorno
Language:
Italian
Giorno per giorno egli viene, egli viene, e poi sen va!
Tieni amica, dagli un fiore, questo fior che ho tra i capelli!
Se ti domanda chi glielo dona,
Oh! No! non dirgli, no, non dirgli il nome mio, ti prego,
Perchè egli non fa che venir... che venire e andarsene!
Si siede in terra sotto l'albero,
Fagli un sedil di foglie e fiori!
I suoi occhi son tristi e portan la malinconia nel cor.
Ei non rivela il suo pensiero,
Vien soltanto, e poi sen va.
