Mario Frangoulis Buongiorno Principessa

MARIO FRANGOULIS BUONGIORNO PRINCIPESSA

music: Nicola Piovani from the film "life is beautiful"
lyrics: Vincenzo Cerami

Se canterai
Nella notte che non passa mai
Ti bacero
Sono belle le labbra che ridono

Se piovera
Con la pioggia anche il grano verra
Ti trovero
Ripescando la felicita.

Guarda lassu
La luna e tutta bianca e il cielo e tutto blu
E se anche tu ci sarai
Sara facile tutto vedrai
Ce la faro
Con la forza che ti rubero

E torneremo
A camminare per la via
E ogni stagione riavra la sua poesia.

Se finira
Questa notte di bassa marea
Andremo via
Ripescando la felicita.

Felicita
Andremo via

----

Good Morning Princess

If you sing
In the night that never ends
I will kiss you
Those lips look beautiful when they're smiling

If it rains
Along with the rain, the wheat will also come
I will find you
Rediscovering happiness

Look up there
The moon is so white and the sky is so blue
And if you want to be there too
Everything will be easy, you'll see
I will make it happen
with the strength I'll steal from you

And we will return
To walk this path of life
And every season will have poetry once more

If it ends
This night of low tides
We will go away
Rediscovering happiness

Happiness
We will go away

Biography:

Greek tenor Mario Frangoulis established a strong following at home before teaming with Sony Classical to expand his audience to international proportions. Born in Rhodesia, a region of south-central Africa that would later become Zimbabwe, Frangoulis moved to Greece at age four. Raised by his aunt, he left home at age 17 to study acting at London's Guildhall School of Music and Drama. During his years of schooling, when he was performing in such productions as Les Misιrables and The Phantom of the Opera in London's West End, Frangoulis began making a slow transition toward opera singing. He moved to New York to study for three years at the Julliard School of Music and also studied with legendary tenor Alfredo Kraus. Following his years of study, Frangoulis began performing extensively, in everything from roles in films and television to theatrical productions of Greek tragedies and Shakespere. He also pursued a recording career, beginning a high-profile relationship with Sony Classical in 1998. He topped the charts at home in Greece and extended his reach internationally in 2002 with Sometimes I Dream, an album that infused elements of rock, pop, and film music as well as opera.
