Maga Maghella, Maga Maghella
Witch Maghella, Witch Maghella
Se ti va brutta, se ti va bella
If you feel ugly, if you feel beautiful
Nel tuo futuro leggerà
In your future she'll read
Maga Maghella, Maga Magà
Witch Maghella, Witch Magà
Con la bacchetta
With her wand
Maga Maghella
Witch Maghella
Dal firmamento prende una stella
From the heavens she takes a star
Un micro oroscopo ti farà
She'll make you a micro horoscope
E subitosto te lo dirà
And right away she'll tell you
Se sei dei gemelli
If you're a Gemini
Tre giorni belli
Three beautiful days
Stasera esci
Tonight you go out
Se sei dei pesci
If you're of the fish
Per la bilancia
For the scale
Che mal di pancia
What a bellyache
Toro, lavoro ti arriverà
Taurus, work will come to you
Maga Maghella, Maga Maghella
Se ti va brutta se ti va bella
If it goes bad or if it goes well
Nel tuo futuro leggerà
It will read in your future
Maga Maghella, Maga Magà
Maga Maghella, Maga Magà!
Witch Maghella, Witch Magà!
Tanta dolcezza
So much sweetness
Per gli scorpioni
For the Scorpios
E per la vergine
And for the Virgo
Baci a vagoni
Kisses by the wagonload
L'ariete posta riceverà
The Aries will receive their share
Al sagittario, felicità!
To Sagittarius, happiness!
Se sei della acquario
If you're an Aquarius
E' straordinario
It's extraordinary
Un gran bel giorno
A beautiful day
Al capricorno
To the Capricorn
Per il leone
For the Leo
Fuoco e passione
Fire and passion
Cancro sei stanco
Cancer, you’re tired
Non lavorar!
Don't work!
Maga Maghella, Maga Maghella
Se ti va brutta, se ti va bella
If it goes bad, if it goes well
Nel tuo futuro leggerà
In your future, she'll read
Maga Maghella, Maga Magà
Maga Maghella, Maga Magà!
Ah! Ah! Ah!
Che fatipeso stancante
What a tiring weight to bear
Arrivo subitosto, immediapresto!
I'm coming right away, immediately!
