Nina, ton sourire,
Ta voix qui soupire,
Tes yeux qui font dire
Qu'on croit au bonheur,

Les belles années,
Les douces journées,
Les roses fanées,
Mortes sur ton cœur...

Nina, ma charmante,
Pendant la tourmente,
La mer écumante
Grondait à nos yeux ;

Riante et fertile,
La plage tranquille
Nous montre l'asile
Qu'appelaient nos vœux !

Aimable Italie,
Sagesse ou folie,
Jamais ne t'oublie
Qui t'a vue un jour, un seul jour !

Toujours plus chérie,
Ta rive fleurie
Sera la patrie
Que cherche l'amour, oui l'amour.
