Translation of the song Sa bellesa de Clori artist Maria Giovanna Cherchi
Sa bellesa de Clori
The beauty of Clori
Ite bella chi ses, cantu m'agradas,
How beautiful you are, how much I like you,
cantu a sos ojos mios ses grassiosa!
how pretty you are in my eyes!
A mes'aprile non fiorit rosa
In mid-April no rose blossoms
colorida che tue e attraente.
as colored and attractive as you are.
Tue faghes amante unu serpente
You make a lover out of a serpent
cun sos risitos tuos e miradas!
by your smiles and glances!
Ite bella chi ses, cantu m'agradas (x3)
How beautiful you are, how much I like you (x3)
Ite bellesa in gradu soberanu!
What a beauty in the highest degree!
Che a tue no nde ‘antat ater'una
No other beauty compares to yours
s'edade antiga ne i'sa novella.
neither in ancient nor in modern times.
Bellos sun sos fiores in beranu,
The flowers are beautiful in spring,
est bella s'aurora e i’sa luna,
the dawn and the moon are beautiful,
ma tue ses ancora pius bella!
but you are even more beautiful!
Bellos sun sos fiores in beranu,
The flowers are beautiful in spring,
est bella s'aurora e i’sa luna,
the dawn and the moon are beautiful,
ma tue ses ancora pius bella!
but you are even more beautiful!
In sa pessone lughes che istella
In person you shine like a star
e incantu detzisu in ojos juches,
and have a firm charm in your eyes,
in sa pessone che istella lughes
you shine like a star in your person
e ispannas sas nues cun su risu.
and sweep away the clouds with your laugh.
In ojos juches incantu detzisu
In your eyes you have a firm charm
pro lassare ‘onzi coro a pesa-rue.
that makes every heart falter.
Bellos sun sos fiores in beranu,
The flowers are beautiful in spring,
est bella s'aurora e i’sa luna,
the dawn and the moon are beautiful,
ma ses ancora pius bella tue!
but you are even more beautiful.
