by Giuseppe Parini (1729 - 1799)
Al mio ben mi veggio avanti
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Available translation(s): ENG
Al mio ben mi veggio avanti, del suo cor sento la pena, e la legge ancor mi frena. Ah si rompa il crudo laccio: abbastanza il cor soffrì. Se pietà dell'alme amanti, bella diva, il sen ti move, non voler fra tante prove agitarle ognor così.
