Eravi un vecchio sire, Canuto il crine e grave il core avea; Povero vecchio sire! Una sposina giovine prendea. C'era un bel paggio, avea Leggero il core e bionda la testina; Alla giovin reina Lo strascico di seta egli reggea. - Conosci tu l'antica canzoncina ? Suona si dolce, suona si amara! Son morti tutti e due, paggio e regina: La gli era troppo cara.
