This track is dedicated to Alessandro Romagnuolo, a former student of mine and now a piano teacher at various Music Academies.
He once played this piece in his childhood and it evokes beautiful memories...

Fenesta che lucive
Fenesta ca lucive e mo' nun luce
Sign'è ca nenna mia stace ammalata
S'affaccia la sorella e me lo dice
Nennella toja è morta e sotterrata
Chiagneva sempe ca durmeva sola
Mo' duorme co' li muorte accompagnata
Va nella chiesa e scuopre lu tavuto
Vide nennella toja comm'è turnata
Da chella vocca che n'ascéano sciure
Mo' n'esceno li vierme, oh che pietate
Zi' parrucchiane mio, àbbice cura
'Na lampa sempe tiénece allummata
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
English translation:

The window which used to shine, shines for me no more
A sign my beloved is sick
Her sister appeared and told me
Your beloved is dead and buried
Crying always that she slept alone,
Now she sleeps accompanied by the dead
Going to the church and found her casket
Look at your beloved one, as if she came back
From those lips - flowers used to come out
Now worms come out of them, oh, what a pity!
You, my priest, take care of her
Always keep a candle lit for her (for eternity)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Nederlandse vertaling: 

Het raam dat schitterde, schijnt voor mij niet meer
Een teken dat mijn geliefde ziek is, oh, wat een pijn.
Haar zus verscheen en vertelde mij met smart,
Je geliefde is heengegaan, dood en al begraven

Altijd huilend omdat ze alleen moest slapen,
Nu slaapt ze vergezeld van de doden, in stille lusten.
Ik ging naar de kerk en vond haar kist
Kijk naar je geliefde, alsof ze weer tot ons staat.

Uit die lippen kwamen eens bloemen zo teer,
Nu kruipen wormen eruit, oh, wat een zeer.
Jij, mijn priester, draag zorg voor haar
Houd altijd een kaars voor haar brandend, (tot in eeuwigheid)
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Traduction française: 

La fenêtre qui brillait ne brille plus pour moi
Un signe que mon bien-aimé est malade
Sa sœur est apparue et m'a dit
Votre bien-aimé est mort et enterré
elle n'arrêtait pas de pleurer parce qu'elle devait toujours dormir seule
Maintenant elle dort avec les morts
Va à l'église et trouve son cercueil
Regarde ta bien-aimée, comme si elle revenait
De ces lèvres sont sorties des fleurs
Maintenant les vers sortent, oh, quel dommage !
Toi, mon prêtre, prends soin d'elle
Allumez toujours une bougie pour elle (pour éternité)

Lyrics : Sidney Bechet & Fernand Bonifay

Petite fleur

J'ai caché
Mieux que partout ailleurs
Au jardin de mon cœur
Une petite fleur

Cette fleur
Plus jolie qu'un bouquet
Elle garde en secret
Tous mes rêves d'enfant
Et l'amour de mes parents
Et tous ces clairs matins
Faits d'heureux souvenirs lointains

Quand la vie
Par moment me trahit
Tu restes mon bonheur
Petite fleur

Sur mes vingt ans
Que je m'arrête un moment
Pour respirer
Ce parfum que j'ai tant aimé

Dans mon cœur
Tu fleuriras toujours
Au grand jardin d'amour
Petite fleur

Prends ce présent
Que j'ai toujours gardé
Même à vingt ans
Je ne l'avais jamais donné

N'aies pas peur
Cueillie au fond d'un cœur
Une petite fleur
Jamais ne meurt.

 http://lyricstranslate.com/en/petite-fleur-little-flower.html#ixzz47m6vpK7V

Little Flower

I have hidden
Better than anywhere else
In the garden of my heart
A little flower

This flower
Prettier than a bouquet
It secretly keeps
All my childish dreams
And the love of my parents
And all these clear mornings
Made of happy distant memories

When life
At times betrays me
You remain my happiness
Little flower

If I could
Recall my twenties for a moment
To breath
This perfume that I loved so much

In my heart
You will always bloom
In the grand garden of love
Little flower

Take this gift
That I always kept
Even when I was twenty
I have never given it away

Don't be afraid
Plucked from the bottom of one's heart
A little flower
Never dies

Petite Fleur - Little Flower played by Franco Di Nitto


https://youtu.be/IT8OhNfUv_s "La vita è un uccello con le ali spezzate
Che non può volare"

Hold fast to dreams
For if dreams die
Life is a broken-winged bird
That cannot fly.
Hold fast to dreams
For when dreams go
Life is a barren field
Frozen with snow.

I Love You Baby - Piano Cover played by Franco Di Nitto
This immortal pop song was on the repertoire of Frank Sinatra, Gloria Gaynor, Frankie Valli  and many others. 

The romantic piano version arranged by Kim Bo has caught my attention. As part of a project "Local Artists" Peter Bosmans, Managing Director of the Cultural Center of Houthalen(Belgium), decided to support a number of artists from the neighborhood. Many concerts have been suspended due to corona. That is why these unpretending "little concerts performances" are recorded in Houthalen-Hechteren and published on YouTube.
