So Ben Mi Ch'a Bon Tempo

So ben ch’e favorito,
Ahimé no’l posso dir,
O s’io potessi dire,
Chi va, chi sta, chi vien.
La ti darà martello
Per farti disperar
So ben mi ch’a bon tempo,
Al so ma basta mo
English Translation
I know a lucky fellow.
But I can’t say who it is.
He seems to be quite a favourite.
But my lips are sealed.
O! If I could only tell you.
Who comes, who goes, who stays.
But if I did,
You would probably despair.
I know a lucky fellow.
But I can’t say who it is.
