English Translation: "Return to Sorrento"
-- by Ernesto and Giambattista De Curtis - circa 1902

Sunlight dances on the sea.
Tender thoughts occur to me.
I have often seen your eyes
In the nighttime, when I dream.

When I pass a garden fair,
And the scent is in the air
In my mind a dream awakes,
And my heart begins to break.

But you said goodbye to me.
Now all I can do is grieve.
Can it be that you forgot?
Darling, forget me not!

Please don't say farewell
And leave this heart that's broken.
Come back to Sorrento,
So I can mend.

Italian Lyrics: "Torna a Surriento"

Vide 'o mare quantè bello,
Spira tantu sentimento,
Comme tu a chi tiene mente,
Ca scetato 'o faie sunnà.

Guarda, gua, chistu ciardino;
Siente, sie sti sciure arance:
Nu profumo accussi fino
Dinto 'o core se ne va.

E tu dice: "I parto, addio!"
Talluntane da stu core
Da la terra de lammore
Tiene 'o core 'e nun turnà?

Ma nun me lassà,
Nun darme stu turmiento!
Torna a Surriento,
Famme campà!

E tu dice: "I' parto, addio!"
T'alluntane da stu core
Da la terra de l'ammore
Tiene 'o core 'e nun turnà?

Ma nun me lassà,
Nun darme stu turmiento!
Torna a Surriento,
Famme campà!
