Romanesque
Directed by Philippe Malfeyt

A quand’a quand’haveva una vicina
Ch’era a vedere la stella Diana.
Tu la vedevi, tu li parlavi
Beato te se la basciavi tu.

Che quando se levava la matina
Phebo per scorno se ne ritornava.
Tu la vedevi, tu li parlavi
Beato te se la basciavi tu.

Mo mi credeva starne contento
Et trovommi le mani pien di vento.
Tu la vedevi, tu li parlavi
Beato te se la basciavi tu.

=== ENGLISH ===

Once, once I had a neighbour
who looked like the morning star Diana.
You saw her, you spoke with her,
lucky were you, if you kissed her.

When she rose in the morning,
Apollo the sun god retired abashed.
You saw her, you spoke with her,
lucky were you, if you kissed her.

I, I believed that I was happy with her,
but here I am now with only the wind in my hands.
You saw her, you spoke with her,
lucky were you, if you kissed her.
