The Godfather 3 - Brucia La Terra

Anthony Corleone plays a sicilian song for his father. Scene from “The Godfather, Part 3“. Music by Nino Rota. “Brucia la Luna, Brucia la Terra“. Brucia la luna n’cielu E ju bruciu d’amuri Focu ca si consuma Comu lu me cori L’anima chianci Addulurata Non si da paci Ma cchi mala nuttata Lu tempu passa Ma non agghiorna Non c’e mai suli S’idda non torna Brucia la terra mia E abbrucia lu me cori Cchi siti d’acqua idda E ju siti d’amuri Acu la cantu La me canzuni Si no c’e nuddu Ca s’a affacia A lu barcuni Translation: The moon is burning in the sky And I am burning with love The fire that is consumed Like my heart My soul crys Painfully I’m not at peace What a terrible night The time passes But there is no dawn There is no sunshine If she doesn’t return My earth is burning And my heart is burning What she thirsts for water I thirst for love Who will I sing My song to If there is no one Who shows herself On the balcony (Thanks to chabos4)
