Lletres: Jackie Evancho. Prelude to a Dream. O Mio Babbino Caro.

O mio babbino caro,
mi piace, A? bello bello,
voa??andare in Porta Rossa
a comperar la??anello!
Si, si, ci voglio andare!
E se la??amassi indarno,
andrei sul Ponte Vecchio
ma per buttarmi in Arno!
Mi struggo e mi tormento,
O Dio! Vorrei morir!
Babbo, pietA , pietA !
Babbo, pietA , pietA !

English Translation

Oh my dear father,
I like him, he is very handsome.
I want to go to Porta Rossa
to buy the ring!
Yes, yes, I want to go there!
And if my love were in vain,
I would go to Ponte Vecchio
and throw myself in the Arno!
I am pining and I am tormented,
Oh God! I would want to die!
