(English)
Din, don
campanon
quattro vecchie sul balcon:
una che fila, una che taglia,
una che fa i cappelli di paglia,
una che fa i coltelli d'argento
per tagliare la testa al vento.
Ding, dong
Big bell's tones,
On the porch sit four old crones:
See one spin, see one snip without a flaw,
See the third shape hats of straw,
Silver knives the fourth makes dread
To chop off the cold wind's head.
Notes
Literal translation:
Ding, dong
Big bell
Four old ladies on the balcony,
One is spinning, one is cutting,
One is making straw hats,
One is making silver knives
To chop off the head of the wind.
