Un mese o ppoco ppi doppo er guadaggnoA
De la piastra che ffece er zanto preteB
Venne la pasqua e 'r gabbiano che ssapeteB
Cominci a lavor de scacciaraggnoA

Ch'ed Un bucio ar zolaro Oh pprete caggnoA
Fece allora er babbeo che conosceteB
Eccolo indove vanno le moneteB
Va che lo scudo mio cerca er compaggnoA

About one month or slightly more afterC
the holy priest's profit of one shillingF
Easter came and the aforesaid foolG
Began cleaning his houseH
-
What's this A hole in the ceiling Oh damned priestB
Said the fool you knowA
This is where my money goesI
I bet that my shilling is going to doubleJ
-
And actually after two nights of restB
There goes the old Abbess againA
Whith the usual sighD
-
Father Liborio one trick's enoughD
He cried and this timeK
If you want to say mass say mass for freeC
