Here is a more literal translation of the song:

**How beautiful it is that it is beautiful to go in a gondola

Up and down the canals together with you

Feel the sweet waves that caress us

As the sun slowly disappears

The moon is a charm

But I’m not more saintly

I touch you, I kiss you, I want you more and more

In Venice we love each other

In Venice we kiss more

In Venice it’s beautiful to love

In Venice we say I Love You**

Some of the words and phrases in the song have a particular meaning in the Venetian dialect. For example, “beo” means “beautiful,” “cocola” means “to caress,” and “putei” means “children.”

The song was a success with critics and the public, and contributed to making Venetian popular music known to a wider audience.

In addition to the Venetian song “A Venezia Insieme a Ti” a Spanish version was created entitled “En Venecia junto a ti”
