[Verse 1] The night was young, the little café breathed slow Stone-paved lane outside, unchanged forever Always warm with fine meals, soft wine And the hum of old stories Older men gathered in their corner Hands around glasses, eyes half in memory Foreigners at one table, new to the lyre’s silver pluck New to the accordion’s sigh drifting through the door [Verse 2] Then she rose, a young woman alone Like a secret waking in the room She began dancing with herself Hips catching the rhythm, shoulders turning with the chords As if she’d stepped out of another century The room went quiet, even the old men froze mid-breath Watching this beauty, long in leg, shaped like a whispered sin A face that could knock the whole block over with one glance [Chorus] Bedda mia, chi ffranci rap, hip hop Fai pari na stidda ca scinni d’u celu Lu cori miu si scanta e poi si perdi Quannu ti movi accussì lenta, accussì forti Danza, amuri, ca sta notti è tutta to Beautiful one, the steps you take Are like a star falling from the sky My heart trembles and then gets lost When you move so slow, so strong Dance, my love, this night belongs to you [Bridge] She turns again, slow fire in her hips The music pulling her like a tide Blood calls, the heart answers And the stone lane remembers her always Veni, bedda, cu lu focu ’nni l’anche Lassa ca la musica ti porta Lu sangu chiama, lu cori rispunni E sta strata di petra ti ricorda sempri [Final Chorus] Bedda mia, chi ffranci rap, hip hop Fai pari na stidda ca scinni d’u celu Lu cori miu si scanta e poi si perdi Quannu ti movi accussì lenta, accussì forti Danza, amuri, ca sta notti è tutta to Danza sula, ma ogni omu ’nni sta stanza Si senti brusciari cu tia Danza sula, bedda mia Ca tuttu lu paese ti voli taliari [Outro] And if the night takes me If the moon pulls me under I’ll still call her name across these vines Bedda mia, I’d spill every drop of wine Just to see her shadow turn again Let it fall, let it stain the floor Like the love I can’t hold back Lu cori, my heart, never stops burning When she dances by herself
