Go, little book, and wish to all

Language: English

Our translations: ITA

Go, little book, and wish to all
Flowers in the garden, meat in the hall,
A bin of wine, a spice of wit,
A house with lawns enclosing it,
A living river by the door,
A nightingale in the sycamore!

Auguri

Language: Italian (Italiano) after the English

Vai, libriccino, a tutti augurante
Un giardino fiorito e cibo abbondante,
un fiasco di vino, di sale una presa,
un prato verde tutto intorno alla casa,
un fresco ruscello che passa lì accanto,
e, presso il sicomoro, d'un usignolo il canto!
