From the 1930 Film
Music by Ernesto de Curtis
A Mickey McBride Arrangement
SEE THE BEAUTY OF THE WATERS!
Guarda il mare com'e bello!
HOW IT PLUCKS THE VERY HEARTSTRINGS!
Spira tanto sentimento.
'TIS LIKE YOU, WHOSE GLANCE SEDUCES,
Come il tuo soave accento,
THOUGH AWAKE, TO THINK WE DREAM!
che me desto fa sognar.
LOOK, O LOOK UPON THIS GARDEN,
Senti come illeve salle,
SMELL THE SCENT OF ORANGE BLOSSOMS,
dai giardini odor d'aranci,
SCENT SO SWEET IT WINDS ITS TENDRILS
Un perfumo non v'ha
ROUND ABOUT THE INMOST HEART...
eguale per chi palpita d'amore....
YET YOU SAY: "FAREWELL, I'M LEAVING?"
E tu dicro parto addio,
YOU'D DESERT THESE LOVING ARMS
T'allontani dal mio core,
AND THIS VERY LAND OF LOVE...
questa terra del amore,
COULD YOU MEAN NOT TO RETURN?
hai la forza di lasciar.
GO NOT AWAY FROM ME,
Ma non mi fuggir,
BREAK NOT MY HEART WITH SORROW!
non dar mi piu tormento,
COME BACK TO SORRENTO,
torna a Sorrento
THAT I MAY LIVE!
non farmi morir
SEE THE WAVES THAT LAP SORRENTO,
'TIS IN TRUTH A JEWEL THEY CHERISH,
THOSE WHO'VE NEVER TRAVELED FAR HAVE
NEVER SEEN ITS LIKE IN ALL THE WORLD,
SEE THESE SIRENS ROUND ABOUT YOU,
GAZING AT YOU WITH ENCHANTMENT,
LOVING YOU SO MUCH AND LONGING
TO BESTOW A FLEETING KISS,
YET YOU SAY: "FAREWELL, I'M LEAVING?"
E tu dicro parto addio,
YOU'D DESERT THESE LOVING ARMS
T'allontani dal mio core,
AND THIS VERY LAND OF LOVE...
questa terra del amore,
COULD YOU MEAN NOT TO RETURN?
hai la forza di lasciar.
GO NOT AWAY FROM ME,
Ma non mi fuggir,
BREAK NOT MY HEART WITH SORROW!
non dar mi piu tormento,
COME BACK TO SORRENTO,
torna a Sorrento
THAT I MAY LIVE!
non farmi morir
"Paramount On Parade"
COME BACK TO
SORRENTO
(Torna A Surriento)
