Che bella cosa na jurnata 'e sole
What a beautiful thing a sunny day is
n'aria serena doppo na tempesta
A serene air after a storm
pe ll'aria fresca pare già na festa
In the fresh air, it already feels like a celebration
che bella cosa na jurnata 'e sole.
What a beautiful thing a sunny day is.
Ma n'atu sole cchiu' bello, oi ne'
But another sun more beautiful, oh yes
'o sole mio sta nfronte a te
My sun is in front of you
'o sole, o sole mio
The sun, oh my sun
sta nfronte a te
Is in front of you
sta nfronte a te
Is in front of you
