Topolino Topoletto
"Topolino" and "Topoletto" are diminutives for "topo" (mouse). The translation is mousie. We translated it as "Mouse-ino" and "Mouse-etto" to keep the sound.

Topolino Topoletto, zum pa pa,
è caduto sotto al letto, zum pa pa,
e la mamma poverina, zum pa pa,
lo cercava giù in cantina, zum pa pa.
Topolin si è fatto male, zum pa pa,
l'han portato in ospedale, zum pa pa,
l'ambulanza era per via, zum pa pa,
lo han portato in farmacia, zum pa pa.
In farmacia c'era il dottore, zum pa pa,
Topoletto aveva dolore, zum pa pa,
e il dottore come cura, zum pa pa,
ha preparato una puntura, zum pa pa.
Topoletto all'improvviso, zum pa pa,
è balzato su deciso, zum pa pa,
il dolore era sparito, zum pa pa,
Topoletto era guarito.
Mouse-ino Mouse-etto, zum pa pa,
Fell under the bed, zum pa pa,
And his mommy, poor dear, zum pa pa,
Was searching down in the cellar, zum pa pa.
Mous-ino hurt himself, zum pa pa,
He was taken to the hospital, zum pa pa,
The ambulance was on the way, zum pa pa,
He was taken to the pharmacy, zum pa pa.
In the pharmacy was the doctor, zum pa pa,
Mous-etto was in pain, zum pa pa,
And the doctor, as a cure, zum pa pa,
Prepared an injection, zum pa pa.
Mouse-etto suddenly, zum pa pa,
Jumped up resolutely, zum pa pa,
The pain was gone, zum pa pa,
Mouse-etto was cured.
