by Santu Casanova (1850 - 1936)

Cantu di malincunia
Language: Corsican 
Cari monti diletti 
È colli profumati 
Ricordi suspirati 
Di la vita
Dopu longa partita 
Tornu à l’amate sponde 
Ma più nimu risponde
À la me voce
Ùn ci hè più quella noce 
In la valle fiurita
Si n’hè andata la vita
Cù la pace
Hè notte, tuttu tace 
Intorn’ à quelli lochi
Ùn si vede più fochi
In li contorni.

Ch’ella senti u me cantu 
Pien’ di malincunia
Chì ti chjama, 
O! Maria In tutti i lati
Quelli patti sacrati 
Dicisi in cas’è fora 
Ormai hè ghjunta l’ora 
D’osservalli
S’e tengu à ramintalli
Ùn hè cà par mimoria 
Ch’hè troppu dura a storia 
Di u passatu
Addiu, o pegnu amatu, 
Un’ altra volt’ addiu!
Ti lasciu trà l’ubliu
Di la notte.
