"'O Sole Mio!"

This song brings back many childhood travel memories...anyone who has ever taken a vacation with my parents know exactly what I'm talking about!  I took the time today to look up the lyrics, and it's actually quite beautiful!

Che bella cosa è na jurnata ’e sole, n’aria serena dopo na tempesta! Pe’ ll’aria fresca para già na festa... Che bella cosa na jurnata ’e sole. Ma n’atu sole cchiù bello, oi ne’, ’o sole mio sta nfronte a te! ’o sole, ’o sole mio, sta nfronte a te, sta nfronte a te! Quanno fa notte e ’o sole se ne scenne, me vane quasi ’na malincunia; sotta ’a fenesta toia restarria quanno fa notte e ’o sole se ne scenne. Ma n’atu sole cchiù bello, oi ne’, ’o sole mio sta nfronte a te! ’o sole, ’o sole mio, sta nfronte a te, sta nfronte a te!

English translation What a beautiful thing is a sunny day! The air is serene after a storm, The air is so fresh that it already feels like a celebration. What a beautiful thing is a sunny day! But another sun that's brighter still, It's my own sun that's upon your face! The sun, my own sun, it's upon your face! It's upon your face! When night comes and the sun has gone down, I almost start feeling melancholy; I'd stay below your window When night comes and the sun has gone down. But another sun that's brighter still, It's my own sun that's upon your face! The sun, my own sun, it's upon your face! It's upon your face!

Here are some beautiful hand made items that I feel represent this special song perfectly!
