L’ AMMORE FAUZE
 
Ognune e nuie cercamme e tene’ mente
a tanti e chist’amici cu’ na’ crianza
ce’ sta’ chi te tratta e core overamente
e chi te da’ dulure dinte a panza
 
e truove a centenare dinte e chiese
ca se’ vattene m’piette pe’ scunta’ e peccate
se credene e fa’ fesso a Dio cu’ sti pretese
po’ fore hanna sape’ tutte e fatte e late
 
Nu bastane chist’amici pure e pariente
chi te’ da’ ammore overe e chi’ e fauze
comme faie a vule’ bene a sti’ fetiente
c’avessane cammina’ dinte e prete scauze
 
Ma e’ meglio a vule’ bene a tutti quanti
pure chi’ te rimane for a porta
Pecche’ si tu’ faie bene all’ate e nun t’avante
Starraie sempe m’pace fine a morte

THE FAKE LOVE
 
Each one of us we try to remember
the many of our friends with respect
there’re the ones that really treat your heartily
and the ones that give you just belly aches
 
You finds them by the hundreds in Churches
that beat on their chest to repent their sin
they think they fool God with their performance
than outside they need to know everyone business
 
Not enough for our friends even our relatives
we have who really loves you and who is a faker
how can really love these dirty minded people
when they should be walking on pebbles barefoot
 
But is always better to love everyone
even the ones that leave you outside their door
because if you do good to others and don’t brag
you will always have your inner peace until death
