The North American version is:
Red sky in the morning, sailors take warning
Red sky at night, sailors delight
Denmark/Norway (my favourite so far):
Morning red gives wet days,
Evening wet gives sweet days
Italian:
Red at night, good weather is hoped,
Red in the morning bad weather approaches
French ( poetic sounding in French but loses in translation ):
Rouge le soir, bel espoir,
Rouge le matin del la pluie en chemin
Red at night, great hope,
Red in the morning, rain on the way
Red sky in the morning, sailors take warning
Red sky at night, sailors delight
