    Default Pink Martini - Ninna Nanna

    Can somebody translate it to english?

    Ninna nanna marinare
    'Ngopp a varca, miezo o mare
    Io te parl e nun respunn
    Te si perze miez o suonn

    Te vurria magna' de vas
    Ma ho paura e te sceta'
    Cosi' guarde da luntane
    Co' stu core innammurat

    Quann aggia' spetta
    D'averti questa sera
    Co'sta luna quiena?
    Quann aggia ' sogna'
    Di dirti quanto t'amo
    Co' stu' core 'man - ma tu -
    sogni qui nel bluuuu...

    Ninna nanna marinare
    Tu si bell comme o' mare
    A vote calm, senza creste
    A vote tutta na' tempesta

    Ma tu suonn d'ate cose
    E chissa se t'arricuord
    Che tra a luna e mieze e stelle
    Io t'aspette a braccia aperte

    Quann aggia' spetta
    D'averti questa sera
    Co'sta luna quiena?
    Quann aggia ' sogna'
    Di dirti quanto t'amo
    Co' stu' core 'man - ma tu -
    sogni qui nel bluuuu...

    Yep, it's neapolitan dialect
