Buona sera signorina
Rocco Granata Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Buona sera signorina buona sera
It is time to say goodnight to Napoli
Though it's hard for us to whisper buona sera
With that old moon above the Mediterranean sea
In the morning signorina we'll go walking
Where the mountains help the moon come in to sight
And by the little jewelry shop we'll stop and linger
In the meantime let me tell you that I love you
Buona sera signorina kiss me goodnight
Buona sera signorina kiss me goodnight

(Buona sera signorina buona sera)
(It is time to say goodnight to Napoli)
Though it's hard for us to whisper buona sera
With that old moon above the Mediterranean sea

In the morning signorina we'll go walking
Where the mountains help the moon come in to sight
And by the little jewelry shop we'll stop and linger
In the meantime let me tell you that I love you




Buona sera signorina kiss me goodnight
Buona sera signorina kiss me goodnight

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Rocco Granata's song Buona sera signorina are a sweet, romantic love song that takes place in Italy. The song begins with the title phrase, meaning "good evening miss," and is followed by a message that it's time to say goodnight to Napoli, the city in Italy where the song is set. However, despite the goodnight message, it's hard for the singer and his love interest to say goodbye with the old moon above the Mediterranean sea.


In the morning, the singer and his love interest plan to go walking and take in the beauty of the mountains that help the moon come into view. They plan to stop at a little jewelry shop and linger. In the meantime, the singer lets his love know that he loves her and asks for a goodnight kiss.


The song is a beautiful ode to the romantic scenery and culture of Italy, and the love that can bloom between people even in the midst of saying goodbye. It evokes a sense of nostalgia for a simpler time, and the beauty of love and nature.

Meine Eltern hatten diese Single und als Kind wollte ich das Lied immer wieder hören. So eine weiche Stimme. Mein Vater war immer nur streng. Heute entdeckte ich das Lied wieder und muss weinen.

Ich habe noch nie ein so tief gehendes Lied gehört . Ich habe mich im Büro eingeschlossen damit meine Frau meine Tränen nicht sieht . Danke Gott das du so ein Lied uns Menschen gebracht hast.

Bist so sentimental, romantisch warum führst du ein Krieg gegen Russland, unterstützst die ukronazisten?

@volkergossel7419

@@josefjosef3197 der schuldige für diesen Krieg ist nur der Ami , der Russe war mir der Selbstständigkeit der Ukraine einverstanden ( lt Vertrag ) aber ohne Nato und genau will der Halunke Amerika. USA ist so schön aber die Politik ist Menschenverachtend .
