Era bello il mio ragazzo [English translation]

It was nice my son always happy with hopes

She said to me, "Mummy one day you know I'll take you away

Away from this misery, in a lady's home

From this struggle you will finally be able to rest. "

It was good my son; his father died he was a child

But he said to me, "Do not be afraid. I'm going to the shipyard now

I'm grown up now you see it I take my father's work place,

I'm able to work, you do not have to worry

It was tired my son, when he was in that hospital bed

But he said to me, "It does nothing, just a small accident

When you work hard there is no money to waste

You can not take too much care to get on the scaffold "

It was nice my son with the Sunday dress

I felt he belonged entirely to me while I was saying goodbye

And then when I kissed him I ripped off a promise

And I told him my soul, soon you can take me away

It was nice my son ...
