Suli, ventu, mari
Alone, wind, sea
A genti c'arridi cu mu fa fari
To the people who smile at me, what can I do?
A gghiriminni senza turnari
To wander without returning
Cu mu fa fari, Sicilia bedda
What can I do, beautiful Sicily?
Si pinsassi ca nu vasu di n'atra città
If I thought of a kiss from another city
Iancu lariu ca nan tingi, n'teni virità
White light that doesn’t fade, holds the truth
Lu me cori trubbuliatu, do fumu malandatu
My heart troubled, from the cursed smoke
Ca vo scappari e ddocu resta
That wants to escape, and remains trapped
Ci pruvai già a zumpari oltr'a stu muru d'acqua e sale
I already tried to jump over this wall of water and salt
C'allinghi la realtà della mia terra
To call the reality of my land
Suli, ventu, mari
Sun, wind, sea
A genti c'arridi cu mu fa fari
To the people who smile at those who dare to love
A gghiriminni senza turnari
In circles without returning
Cu mu fa fari, Sicilia Bedda
To those who dare to love, Beautiful Sicily
Nata ai piedi del vulcano
Born at the foot of the volcano
U mari focu quagghiatu do friddu
The sea, boiling from the cold
Facce vecchie, appese, stese
Old faces, hung, stretched out
Gocciano frasi a tradimento
Words drip like betrayal
Mamma ca mi schigghia forte n'atra vota nell'orecchio
Mom who wakes me up strong once again in my ear
"La terra è mare, sangue rosso che ci scorre dentro"
"The land is sea, red blood flowing within us"
Suli, ventu, mari
Sun, wind, sea
A genti c'arriri cu mu fa fari
To the people, laugh with those who make me do things
A ghiriminni senza turnari
To the little ones without turning back
Cu mu fa fari, Sicilia bedda
With those who make me do things, beautiful Sicily
Muri di zumpari
Walls of jumping
E mari prufunni a oltrepassari
And the deep sea to cross
Tu terra mia, tu si l'amuri e vogghiu ristari
You, my land, you are the love and I want to stay
Sicilia bedda
Beautiful Sicily
(Arrusbigghiamuni, carusi)
(Let's wake up, kids)
(Rumpemuli sti catini)
(Let's break these chains)
(Sta terra è da nostra)
(This land is ours)
(E ccà vulemu stari)
(And here we want to stay)
Sicilia bedda
Beautiful Sicily
Suli, ventu, mari
Sun, wind, sea
A genti c'arriri cu mu fa fari
The people smile while they make us act
A ghiriminni, tu si l'amuri e vogghiu ristari
In the warmth, you are the love and I want to stay
Sicilia bedda
Beautiful Sicily
Sicilia bedda
Beautiful Sicily
