Original lyrics
Sciummo
Tu scinne
sciummo, sciummo, sciummo
da 'a muntagna
io scénno
ca na malasciorte
mm'accumpagna
e ghiammo, ohé
ll'ammore è sciummo ca se perde a mare
Tu cante
tòcche, tòcche, tòcche
spaccalegna:
'A saccio
nun ce sta na vócca
cchiù sanguégna.
E i' scénno, ohé
chi perde 'ammore va cercanno a mare
Tu scinne
sciummo, sciummo, sciummo
da 'a muntagna
io scénno
ca na malasciorte
mm'accumpagna
e ghiammo, ohé
ll'ammore è sciummo ca se perde a mare
Tu cante
tòcche, tòcche, tòcche
spaccalegna:
'A saccio
nun ce sta na vócca
cchiù sanguégna.
E i' scénno, ohé
ll'ammore è sciummo ca se perde a mare
e 'nfunn'ô mare s'arreposa 'o core

Lyrics not featured in this version of the song:
Campana
ca suone 'a copp'a stu cunvento
tu siente
ch'ha fatto chella faccia 'e santa:
Ajére, 'mbracci'a me, nu svenimento
stasera vasa a n'ato e se n'avanta
Oje comme sona lenta e triste
na zampogna ca scénne
sciummo, sciummo, sciummo
da 'a muntagna
e ghiammo, ohé
ll'ammore è sciummo ca se perde a mare
e 'nfunn'ô mare s'arreposa 'o core
Paese
addó' só' nato, io te saluto
te veco
llà 'ncimma sulo e abbandunato
e io 'nfamo, 'nfamo 'e me, mme ne só' ghiuto
te lasso pecché 'ammore mm'ha lassato
Tu chiagne
quase comm'a n'ommo ca se lagna
e i' scénno
sciummo, sciummo, sciummo
da 'a muntagna
e ghiammo, ohé
ll'ammore è sciummo ca se perde a mare
e sulo 'o mare fa scurdà ll'ammore

Translation
Fiume
River, river, river,
You who descend from the mountains
I descend with bad luck that accompanies me
And off we go
Love is a river that gets lost in the sea
You sing
knock, knock, knock
feller:
I know that there is no lips as bloody as these
And I descend
The one who loses love goes to search the sea
River, river, river,
You who descend from the mountains
I descend with bad luck that accompanies me
And off we go
Love is a river that gets lost in the sea
You sing
knock, knock, knock
feller:
I know that there is no lips as bloody as these
And I descend
The one who loses love goes to search the sea
And on the bottom of the sea, my heart rests

Lyrics not featured in this version of the song:
Bell,
you who ring from top of this monastery,
hear,
what this saint-like woman has done to me:
Yesterday she was losing her self in my arms
and today she kisses another boasting
Oh river,
how sadly and slowly bagpipe sound descends from the mountains
And off we go,
love is a river that gets and on the bottom of the sea, my heart rests
My hometown, where I was born, I salute you
I see you
there, on the mountain top alone and abandoned
and I am shamefully leaving you for my love has left me
You cry,
almost like a sad person
River,
I am descending from the mountains
And off we go
Love is a river that gets lost in the sea
and only sea makes love go away
