Kingstown regatta


Diddle eye, diddle eye,
diddle eye the captain of the ship will race tonight,
diddle eye the ship is gonna win the race tonight!

Carissimi lettori, spettabile editore,
sono qui a bordo della nave,
il mare è blu profondo, le vele sono alzate,
il vento forte che fischia tra le scocche.Gli scogli sono vicini, le barche già salpate,
sulla riva si scorgono le donne ingioiellate.
I lords con alte tube, carrozze a due cavalli
e gli ombrelloni aperti riparano dal sole.

Diddle eye the captain of the ship will race tonight,
diddle eye the captain of the ship will race tonight,
diddle eye the sailors of the ship will race tonight,
diddle eye the ship is gonna win the race tonight!

Il Rainbow è già davanti, la prua divora il mare,
pare un veliero che parte all'arrembaggio.
Il Duca degli Abruzzi che gonfia le sue vele
è un pescecane che insegue la sua preda.
Il traguardo è là lontano, oltre all'orizzonte,cercando la vittoria i marinai gridano forte:
“Avanti a tutta randa! Timone e barra a dritta!”
sognando come Ulisse un arrivo tra le folle.

Diddle eye the captain of the ship will race tonight,
diddle eye the captain of the ship will race tonight,
diddle eye the sailors of the ship will race tonight,
diddle eye the ship is gonna win the race tonight!

A terra i birocciai trasportano le pinte
nessuno vuole perdere l'arrivo dell'eroe,
la nera scorre a fiumi, patate e irish stew,
le signore che ballano alzandosi le gonne
un fischio della nave annuncia il gran ritorno,
il capitano sulla cima saluta col cappello,
le salve dei cannoni tuonano nell'aria,
i vincitori si abbracciano cantanto “Hurra Rainbow!”

Diddle eye the captain of the ship will race tonight,
diddle eye the captain of the ship will race tonight,
diddle eye the sailors of the ship will race tonight,
diddle eye the ship is gonna win the race tonight!

Carissimi lettori, spettabili signori,
non rimane che porvi amichevoli saluti:
la regata è terminata, le luci sono spente,
le barche dormon quiete ancorate al molo grande.
Marconi vi saluta dal porto di Kingstown,
abbiamo fatto qui la prima trasmissione.
Chissà se in un futuro potremo dar segnale
in ogni direzione e poi farvi sognare...

Diddle eye the captain of the ship will race tonight,
diddle eye the captain of the ship will race tonight,
diddle eye the sailors of the ship will race tonight,
diddle eye the ship is gonna win the race tonight!

Diddle eye the captain of the ship will race tonight,
diddle eye the captain of the ship will race tonight,
diddle eye the sailors of the ship will race tonight,
diddle eye the ship is gonna win the race tonight!

Diddle eye, diddle eye,
diddle eye the ship is gonna win the race tonight!

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
