by Giovanni Battista Guarini (1538 - 1612)
Pretensione d’amor legittima
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Available translation(s): GER
Non miri il mio bel Sole, Chi lui sol non adora, Com’io, ch’altro non bramo, altro non miro Da l’una, á l’altra aurora. A gran ragion sospiro, E chieggio per giustissima mercede D’un’ amor, d’una fede, D’un languir per bellezze al Mondo sole Sola solo il mio Sole.
Confirmed with Battista Guarini, Il pastor fido, tragicomedia pastorale, 1639, page 98.
