Mamma Mia Che Vo Sape - Carlo Buti with Translation

Momma what do you want to know? by Russo and Nutile
Sung by Carlo Buti my translation follows:
*****************************
When night falls and comes
to burn these weary eyes of mine
when I stay up and miss you
I feel the need to kiss you.
And I call for you, then the day
becomes bright but this brightness
is for others because I hold the
night inside my heart and I can't sleep

Ah, Don't make me die!
what do you want from me?
my mother asks me why this
longing can't leave me

Ah, Don't make me die!
what do you want from me?
what do you want to know, Mamma?
what do I need to make clear?
I can't resist kissing her

II

My mother, this old woman here
Who looks at me with joy
and who understands my heart
In the same way as you do
My mother follows me and looks
at me but she can't understand
What this fever in me is

What do you want from me?
This longing can't leave me
My mother does not understand
my need for you, my need to kiss you

Ah, don't make me die
what do you want from me?
My mother knows that you are
Like an angel to me
I can't make it any clearer

Ah.....Ah
************************************************
Quanno 'a notte se ne scenne
p'abbruciá chist'uocchie stanche,
quann'io veglio e tu mme manche...
sento 'a smánia 'e te vasá!
E te chiammo e schiara juorno,
ma è pe' ll'ate stu chiarore...
tengo 'a notte dint''o core
e nun pòzzo arrepusá...

Ah, nun mme fá murí!...
tu che ne vuó' da me?
Mamma mia mme vène a dí pecché
chesta smánia nun mme vò' lassá...

Ah, nun mme fá murí...
Tu che ne vuó' da me?
Mamma mia che vò' sapé?
Mamma mia ch'ha da appurá?
Nun mme fido d''a vasá...

II

Mamma mia, 'sta vicchiarella,
ca mme guarda pe' gulío
e andivina 'o core mio,
tale e quale comm'a te...
Mamma mia mme vène appriesso,
cu na faccia 'e cera fina,
e mme guarda e nn'andivina
chesta freva mia ched è!

Ah, nun mme fá murí...
tu che ne vuó' da me?
Mamma mia nun pò capí pecché
chesta smania nun mme vò' lassá...
Ah, nun mme fá murí...
Tu che ne vuó' da me?
Mamma mia te sape a te
comm'a n'angelo 'e buntá...
Mamma mia ch'ha da appurá?!

Magnificent! Even without your wonderful lyrics, one knows this is a heart wrung with anguish. Carlo Buti could take you anywhere he wanted you to go. All you have to do is listen!
