Jazz Standard Estate – English Version Lyrics – Bobo Moreno

Just love the English version of the Italian classic jazz standard Estate (summer). I could find the lyrics anywhere so I am posting them. I do not know you came up with the English version. It’s a very interesting and loose translation of the Italian version. I am also posting the Apple music link to the Bobo Moreno version and also a version of the Italian version found on YouTube. Such a mix of melancholy and hope and some great singing and piano on a tasty bass and drum base.

From Dreamsville Bobo Moreno (feat Bo Stife, Ole Kock Hansen, and Adam Nussbaum) – 2013 

Italian version of song Estate by Bruno Martino (original in Italian)  – 1960

Estate 

Your kisses warmed my winter heart to gladness

Our summer nights embraces us with our madness

We toasted life and love with summer wine

Estate

I feel your lips that brought me endless pleasure

I feel your love that time can never measure 

Come back and taste the summer wine with me

Please come back to me now 

The perfumed flowers of summer can be ours 

The sun will see the sky of summer blue

Will give us back the summer love we knew

Estate

Now summer’s past and winter’s skies will chill us

A fire will burn and summer memories fill us 

Your heart is cold with flames that burn no more

Estate, estate 

Please come back …

Estate 

Now summer’s past … 

Estate, estate, estate
