"Catari, Catari, pecche me dici sti parole amare;
pecche me parle e'o core me turmiente, Catari?
Nun te scurda ca t'aggio date'o core, Catari, nun te scurda!
Catari, Catari, che vene a dicere stu parla ca me da spaseme?
Tu nun'nce pienze a stu dulore mio, tu nun'nce pienze, tu nun te ne cure.
Core, core 'ngrato, t'aie pigliato'a vita mia,
tutt'e passato e nun'nce pienze chiu."

ENGLISH:
"Catari, Catari, why are you telling me this ingrate words?
why when you talk to me my heart kills me Catari?
don't forget i gave you my heart Catari
don't forget
Catari, Catari what are you saying?
your "talking" give me "feelings"
you don't care of my pain
ingrate heart ingrate heart
you took my life
everything is gone
and you don't care anyway."

My father introduced this song to me and translated it for me 45 years ago. I fell in love with the song.

My Dad died last year at the age of 82. I miss him so much and when I hear this song I think of him and his gentle ways and it touches my heart so deeply.

Sorry I'm laying this on you but I had to comment. Thanks.

This, I consider to be the one of very few best rendition of "Core 'ngrato".
