"O Mio Babbino Caro"

O mio babbino caro,
Mi piace e bello, bello;
Vo'andare in Porta Rossa
A comparar l'anello!
Si, si, ci voglio andare!
E se l'amassi indarno,
Andrei sul Ponte Vecchio,
Ma per buttarmi in Arno!
Mi struggo e mi tormento!
O Dio, vorrei morir!
Babbo, pieta, pieta!
Babbo, pieta, pieta!

[Translation:]

Oh dear daddy
I love him, he is so handsome
I want to go to Porta Rossa
To buy the ring
Yes, yes, I mean it
And if my love were in vain
I would go to Ponte Vecchio
And throw myself in the Arno
I fret and suffer torments
Oh God, I would rather die
Daddy, have pity, have pity
