| Let's go, let's go! To the top we'll go! Let's go, let's go! To the top we'll go! Funiculi, funicula, funiculi, funicula! To the top we'll go, funiculi, funicula! Let's go from here below up to the mountain, A step away! A step away! I climbed up high this evening, oh, Nanetta, Do you know where? Do you know where? Where this ungrateful heart No longer pains me! No longer pains me! Where fire burns, but if you run away, It lets you be, it lets you be! It doesn't follow after or torment you Just with a look, just with a look. (Chorus) Let's go, let's go! To the top we'll go! You can see France, Procida, and Spain, And I see you! And I see you! You rise, pulled by a cable, quick as a wink, Into the sky! Into the sky! We'll rise up like a whirlwind all of a sudden Knows how to do! Knows how to do! (Chorus) Let's go, let's go! To the top we'll go!
