O mio babbino caro, Oh my dear papa,

mi piace, è bello, bello. I love him, he is handsome,

Vo'andare in Porta handsome.
Rossa (it) I want to go to Porta Rossa
a comperar l'anello! To buy the ring!

Sì, sì, ci voglio andare! Yes, yes, I want to go there!

e se l'amassi indarno, And if my love were in vain,
andrei sul Ponte Vecchio, I would go to the Ponte Vecchio
ma per buttarmi in Arno! And throw myself in the Arno!

Mi struggo e mi tormento! I am anguished and tormented!

O Dio, vorrei morir! Oh God, I'd like to die!
Babbo, pietà, pietà! Papa, have pity, have pity!
Babbo, pietà, pietà! Papa, have pity, have pity!
