La Mia Canzone (sung by Mario Lanza)

Mario Lanza (19211959) recorded the Italian song La Mia Canzone (My Song) in Rome, Italy, in June 1959 for the album Mario Lanza Sings Caruso Favorites, which was released posthumously in 1960. The conductor was Paul Baron (who can be seen in the photo at the 13second mark). La Mia Canzone was written in 1901, with music by Paolo Tosti (18461916) and lyrics by Francesco Cimmino (18621939). La mia canzone è un dolce mormorio My song is a sweet murmur Che sino a te, nell aria fredda, sale; that to you, in the cold air, rises; E, se ti parla ancor dell amor mio, And, if it tells you again of my love, Cara fanciulla, non ti vuol far male; Dear girl, it doesnt wish you ill; Vagando sul tuo candido guanciale, Wandering onto your pure white pillow, Essa vuol dirti un ultimo desio: It wants to confess a last wish: Su la tua bianca fronte verginale. Over your white virginal brow. La mia canzone è il bac br, br,
