Italian Mother's Day Greeting With Musical Tribute By Pavarotti

Published: May 11, 2017 · Modified: Oct 17, 2024 by Marisa Franca

An Italian Mother's Day  Greeting for all the beautiful mammas past and present. They live in our hearts and minds. 

Italian Mother's Day Greeting with line from the Italian classic song Mamma

 

 "Mamma" an Italian Mother's Day tribute

One of the most famous Italian songs is "Mamma." Many artists, Italian, and American-Italian, have performed this song. I picked out Luciano Pavarotti's version because I think his rendition best expresses the joy {tanto felice} of returning home to his mother.

The singer tells his mother how much he loves her {quanto ti voglio bene} and vows never to leave her again {e per la vita non ti lascio mai piú}.

I hope you'll listen to it and enjoy it.

I'm writing out the Italian lyrics for those of you who would like to follow along:

Italian lyrics to "Mamma."

Mamma son tanto felice

Perché ritorno da te.

La mia canzone ti dice

Ch'è il piú bel giorno per me.

Mamma son tanto felice. . .

Viver lontano perché?

Mamma, solo per te la mia canzone vola,

Mamma, sarai con me, tu non sarai piú sola!

Quanto ti voglio bene!

Queste parole d'amore che ti sospira il mio cuore

Forse non s'usano piú.

Mamma, ma la canzone piú bella sei tu.

Sei tu la vita,

E per la vita non ti lascio mai piú.

Sento la mano tua stanca,

Cerca i miei riccioli d'or.

Sento, e la voce ti manca,

La ninna nanna d'allor.

Oggi la testa tua bianca

Io voglio stringere al cuor.

Mamma, solo per te la mia canzone vola.

Mamma, sarai con me, tu non sarai piú sola!

Quanto ti voglio bene!

Queste parole d'amore che ti sospira il mio cuore

Forse non s'usano piú.

Mamma, ma la canzone piú bella sei tu!

Sei tu la vita

E per la vita non til lascio mai piú.

Mamma mai piú!

I hope you liked our Italian Mother's Day Greeting and we hope you enjoyed listening to Luciano Pavarotti's beautiful voice.
