A la campagna è lu felici stari
A la campagna cu' Ninu Martinu,
Chi teni la so genti a larreali
Vistita di damascu e pannu finu.
E pani iancu 'nci duna a mangiari
Lu cumpanaggiu sempri du cchiù finu,
'Mbiviri non li lassa a li funtani
Chi appressu porta l'utri di lu vinu.
Un iornu 'nci 'ncuntrau n'ogghialaru
"Scarrica l'ogghiu" - 'nci dissi Martinu -
E l'ogghialaru si misi a chiangiri
"Pirdia l'ogghiu, poviru mischinu".
Ma lu zzì Ninu ch'è n'omu leali
Iapriu la burza e 'nci dessi nu zzicchinu,
E l'ogghialaru si misi a ballari
Lu fici lu negozziu 'sta matina.
'Nc'era a un paisi 'nu ladru assassinu
Chi ogni genti tenia 'nt'allattiru
"Ora l'aggiustu eu" - dissi Martinu ?
"Subitu 'nci li conzu li custumi".
Quandu si vitti davanti a Martinu
Ddhu delinquenti si misi a trimari
"Si mi sarbati a vita zzì Antuninu,
Vi dugnu 'nu minzeddhu di denari".
"Tu prima mi chiamavi orbu cani,
Ora prirchì mi chiami zzì Antuninu?
Li to paroli su paroli vani,
Fuiri non 'nci poi cu' lu zzì Ninu.
A la muntagna ti vogghiu purtari
Cusì ti 'mpendu a n'arbiru di pinu
Cu' lu cumpagnu mi menti a sparari
Virimu cu è chi spara lu cchiù finu.
