Notte de luna, notte piena de stele,/ full moon night, starry night
vado in laguna e vogo e vogio cantar./ I go to the lagoon I row and i wanna sing
Mi so el gondolier/ I am the gondolier
che in gondola te ninòa,/ who lulls you in gondola
se el remo in forcòla sigòa,/ if the oar creaks in the rowlock
coverze el scìoco dei basi./ it covers the smack of kisses
Mi so el gondolier/ i am the gondolier
che ancora in mar ve dondola,/ still cradling you in the sea
no ste a curarve de mì,/ don't mind me
mi fasso andar la gondola./ I just drive the gondola
Pope… Oeh!, pope… oeh!,
gondola gondola va!
El tempo passa e 'l sol/ time flies and the sun
già spunta a levante,/ is already rising at east
torno in cavana e vogo/ I go back to the "cavana"(a shelter, a sort of garage for boats) and i row
e vogio cantar./ and i wanna sing
Pope… Oeh!, pope… oeh!,
gondola gondola va!
