Padrone mio

Matteo Salvatore

La seguente versione inglese è ripresa, con qualche aggiustamento,...
Padrone mio te voglio arrecchire
come 'no cane voglio fatigare
quanno vado alla tavula a mangiare
la vita mia voglio straziare.

S'è fattu notte e lu patruni suspira
dici ch'è stata curta la jurnata
nun curà tanto lu pane e lu vinu
conta la cincu rana chi m'hai da dari.
MY MASTER, I WANT TO MAKE YOU RICH

Oh my master, I want to make you rich,
oh my master, I want to make you rich,
I want to work hard just like a dog,
I want to work hard just like a dog.

And when I make a mistake, hit me hard,
and when I make a mistake, hit me hard,
I'd rather die, but don't send me away,
I'd rather die, but don't send me away.

I have children and they want their bread,
I have children and they want their bread,
who else but their father will feed them,
who else but their father will feed them?
