Chiove- (Rain) by: Bovio - Nardella A beautiful song about young man watching the rain and thinking about his dieing love affair..........
Very beautiful and passionate rendition by GDS.....my translation follows
********************************************************************************­** "Rain"
You're sick and you sing
you're dying and singing ...
its been nine days, nine,
and it rains ... it rains ... it rains ...

the air is cold,
and the sky is dark,
and you in this cold,
you, alone, sing and die ...

Who are you? you are a Canary ...
Who are you? You are Love ...
You are Love that even when it dies,
sings new songs ...

Jesus, but it rains!

II

You, like a Madonna,
sing a lullaby to an angel
on the cross, who wants
to hear your voice,

A lone voice
that, in the night, sings ...
And you, as a saint
You are all alone,alone, and you die ...

Who are you? you are a Canary ...
Who are you? You are Love ...
You are Love that even when it dies,
sings new songs ...

Jesus, but how it rains!

********************************************************************************­**** Chiove
Tu staje malata e cante,
tu staje murenno e cante...
Só' nove juorne, nove,
ca chiove...chiove...chiove...

E se fa fredda ll'aria,
e se fa cupo 'o cielo,
e tu, dint'a stu ggelo,
tu sola, cante e muore...

Chi si'? Tu si' 'a canaria...
Chi si'? Tu si' ll'Ammore...
Tu si' ll'Ammore,
ca pure quanno more,
canta canzone nove...

Giesù, ma comme chiove!

II

Tu, comm'a na Madonna,
cante na ninna-nonna
pe' n'angiulillo 'ncroce,
ca vò' sentí 'sta voce,

'sta voce sulitaria
ca, dint''a notte, canta...
E tu, comm'a na Santa,
tu sola sola, muore...

Chi si'? Tu si' 'a canaria!
chi si'? Tu si' ll'Ammore...
Tu si' ll'Ammore,
ca, pure quanno more,
canta canzone nove!...

Giesù, ma comme chiove!

  • As always, a wonderful interpretation from the great Di Stefano.

    Thanks for the translation in English, much appreciated.

  • Che voce splendida per timbro e corposità! E quanto pathos in questa interpretazione destinata a rimanere un inestimabile gioiello nel mondo della canzone napoletana! Grandissimo Pippo!

  • My dear Reduxmisc

    Grande interpretação de G.D.S., bela orquestra e belo vídeo.

    Minha avaliação foi five stars.

    Quem gravou bonito também esta música foi o Pavarotti, que também era fã de GDS.

    Grande abraço e continue nos enviando as suas pérolas musicais.
