Chebella cosa `naiurnata'e sole,

N'aria serena doppo `na tempesta

Pe'li'aria fresca pare gi'a festa,

Che bella cosa `na iurnata'e sole!

Ma n'atu sole, cchiu bello, ohine',

`O sole mio sta `frontea te!

`O sole, `o sole mio, sta `nfronteate,

Sta `nfrontea te!
Oh day of beauty when the sun is shining,

The air is calm again, the storm is ended;

The scent of flowers with the breeze is blended,

O day of beauty when the sun is shining

But there is sunlight that's brighter far

Than any sunbeam or any star,

And you, you are my sunlight that's brighter far

Than sun or star
