Donna Lombarda (Dialogo tra una Dama e un Cavaliere)
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Donna lombarda, Donna Lombarda
Vurì vegnì a fa' un bal cun mi?
Vurì vegnì a fa' un bal cun mi?
 
Certo, Signore, ghè vegnarìa
Ma gh'ho paùra dal me marì!
Ma gh'ho paùra dal me marì!
 
Vostro marito , ci penso io
Ci penso io a farlo morir;
Ci penso io a farlo morir.
 
Prendi la testa d'un serpentino
Ridusl 'in puar e mett' l in dal vein
Ridusl 'in puar e mett' l in dal vein.
 
E'l vegna acà, 'l marì dalla cassa
Dammi da bere, ca me g' ho seedd,
Dammi da bere, ca me g' ho seedd.
 
E salta so'l fiulin da la coina:
Papà vebal nò, ch' i't vòn fè murì!
Papà vebal nò, ch' i't vòn fè murì!
 
Donna Lombarda, Donna Lombarda
Beveval vù al vostar von vein,
Beveval vù al vostar von vein.
 
Il primo sorso , ca lù'l gh'ha dato
Donna Lombarda si sente svenir,
Donna Lombarda si sente svenir.
 
Secondo sorso , ca lù gh'ha dato
Donna Lombarda si sente morir,
Donna  Lombarda si sente morir.
 
Il terzo sorso, ca lù'l gh' ha dato,
Donna Lombarda se ne morì,
Donna Lombarda se ne morì.
