Hear my song, Violetta,
Hear my song beneath the moon
Come with me in my gondola
Waiting on the old lagoon

Serenade across the water

Can't you hear it soft and low
A tale of love that lovers used to sing
Long ago.

Hear my song, in my gondola
Waiting on the old lagoon

The moon on an old lagoon
A mandolin softly is played
And someone in love, `neath a window
Singing this serenade

Serenade across the water

Can't you hear it soft and low
A tale of love that lovers used to sing
Long ago.

Hear my song, in my gondola
Waiting on the old lagoon
