On Being a Woman

Why is it, when I am in Rome,
I'd give an eye to be at home,
But when on native earth I be,
My soul is sick for Italy?
 
And why with you, my love, my lord,
Am I spectacularly bored,
Yet do you up and leave me- then
I scream to have you back again?

Рим прекрасен, но порой,
Вспоминаю дом родной.
А когда вернусь домой,
Я в Италии душой.
 
Так и здесь, мой дорогой:
Скучно мне с тобой порой.
А расстанешься со мной,
Побегу я за тобой!
 
Thanks!
