from Volkslieder (Folksongs)

Poter del canto
Language: Piedmontese 
J'é tre fratej con na sorla ch'a son condanà a la mòrt, ...
'L fratel a-j dis a la sorela: "Ò cantoma na canson." ... 
"Coma veule mai ch'i fassa, ch'i l'hai nen né fià né vos?"  ... 
Tanto bin coma cantavo, s'a fasìo tremé 'l mar. 
E lo Rè l'era setà a tàula, s'a chita di disné,
s'a na dis a le soe serve: "Chi saran coj përzoné,
Un ë veuj ant le mie guardie, l'àutr mè page lo veuje fé.
L'àutr ël veuj an scuderìa pë sentì tan bin canté,
për sentì tan bin canté."
