Te solo
 (Sung text for setting by F. Tosti)
 See original
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Qui... te solo, te solo. - Oh, lascia, lascia
Ch'io sfoghi sul tuo cor tutti i singulti
Da tant'anni nel petto accumulati,
Tutti gli affanni e i desideri occulti...

Ho bisogno di pianto.

Sul tuo sen palpitante, oh, lascia, lascia
Ch'io riposi la testa affaticata,
Come timido augello sotto l'ala,
Come rosa divelta e reclinata...

Ho bisogno di pace.

Sul tuo giovine fronte, oh, lascia, lascia
Ch'io prema il labbro acceso e trepidante,
Ch'io ti susurri l'unica parola
Che inebbrii nel delirio d'un istante...

Ho bisogno d'amore.
