by Anonymous / Unidentified Author

O notte, o ciel,’ o mar
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
O notte, o ciel’, o mar, o piagge, o monti,
Che si spesso m'udite chiamar morte
O valli, o selve, o boschi, o fiumi, o fonti,
Che sost'alla mia vita fide scorte
O fere snelle che con liete fronti
Errando andate con gioiosa sorte
O testimon de miei si duri accenti
Dat'audientia insieme a miei lamenti.
