Roberto Murolo Sings "Fenesta Ca Lucive" Lyrics And Translation

The grand master of Neapolitan song in a haunting version of this very sad piece, which is quite similar to the Cajun French song "Je passé devant ta porte." Many singers have sung this song, but Murolo's restrained and understated rendition lends a remarkable dignity to its painful sentiment, which could be ruined by the rather more typical bombast of opera singers who are not sufficiently aware of the long artistic history of the Neapolitan song.
Fenesta ca lucive e mo nun luce, The light that shined in her window shines no more
sign'è ca nénna mia stace malata. A sign that my beloved is very sick.
S'affaccia la surella e mme lu dice: I asked her sister, who told me:
"Nennélla toja è morta e s'è atterrata". Your girl is dead and buried!
Chiagneva sempe ca durmeva sola, She cried because she slept alone,
mo dorme co' li muorte accompagnata. And now she sleeps in the arms of death!
mo dorme co' li muorte accompagnata. And now she sleeps in the arms of death!
Addio fenesta, rèstate 'nzerrata Goodbye, window. Stay closed!
ca nénna mia mo nun se pò affacciare. Because I can never speak to my girl again.
Io cchiù nun passarraggio da 'sta strata. I'll never walk down this street again.
Vaco a lo camposanto a passíare I'll go to the graveyard instead!
Zi' parrocchiano mio, tienece cura, Oh, priest, take care!
na lampa sempe tienece allummata And always keep a candle lit for her
na lampa sempe tienece allummata And always keep a candle lit for her.

A distanza di anni ormai, mi sembra ancora di sentire le voci di due giovani che cantano queste parole in napoletano sul fare dell’alba ,senza rendersi conto,mentre si abbracciano e si baciano nei vicoli bui di Roma,che sarebbe stata l’ultima notte in cui avrebbero fatto l’amore 💔

I can, from the distance of years now, still
think I'm hearing the voices of two young men
singing these words in Neapolitan toward

they would ever make love again.

"От разстоянието на годините все още имам усещането, че чувам гласовете на двамата млади мъже, които пеят тези думи от неаполитанската песен на развиделяване, като нито един от тях не осъзнава, отдаден на прегръдките и повторните целувки в тъмните улички на Рим, че това е последната нощ, през която отново ще се любят."

Mr.St.Austell,in 1951 on my first visit to Italy I discovered 2 Italian artists,Roberto Murolo & Franco Corelli, these 2 have remained close to my heart,I still have acetate Discs which I purchased then.Although they completely different in their style & delivery.I must say I prefer Murulo's style,Opera singers in my opinion do not sing this type of song correctly,this type of composition should be delivered as if an average person would grieve when singing about a beloved whom one has loser.Most of the Opera artist deliver it not as one lost but as if one was serenading a living person.But I enjoy them as it reminds me of my youth.The lighter artists who I cannot remember the names of the 40/60' in my opinion give a better interpretation than the Operatic ones.Rene 88yrs+

This haunting tune is also used in Pasolini's Decamerone, I think. But I totally agree with Edmund StAustel's comment above. Murolo's subtle rendition seems painfully pulled from under the burden of a devastating loss.

it's clear the influence of the Rossini's music. Since the beginning it sounds like the chorus of Jews "Dal tuo stellato soglio" from the opera "Mosè in Egitto"
