Tiny jewels like pretty maids
Sit on hidden palisades;
Oh how lovely!
FIVE LITTLE TOWNS.

  

An unassuming chain of pearls,
Their stunning beauty draws the world 
To these FIVE LITTLE TOWNS.

Monterosso's by the sea;
Vernazza, then just a walk to see Corniglia;
FIVE LITTLE TOWNS. 

 

In Manarola catch the train
To Riomaggiore, then back again;
So charming they capture your heart;
And you don't want to part;
This is how life is done!
Just sit here and greet the sun. 
And be here when evening comes.

  

Tiny jewels set on the sea,
It's how the world was meant to be;
Oh, how lovely!
FIVE LITTLE TOWNS.

 

In these towns I want to stay;
I'll leave to keep their innocence this way
But just a few days-- 
These FIVE LITTLE TOWNS 
I know will never leave me.
