Dammi un ricciolo dei capelli,
  la gnicche, la gnocche, la carichicò,
  Così biondi, così belli.
  Vuoi saper che farne io vo'?
  L'avrò in luogo di giojelli,
  la gnicche, la gnocche, la carichicò.

Di tua mano donami un fiore,
  la gnicche, la gnocche, la carichicò,
  Da serbarlo sopra il core.
  Vuoi saper che farne io vo'?
  Un emblema dell'amore,
  la gnicche, la gnocche, la carichicò.

Dammi il core, mio giovinetto,
  la gnicche, la gnocche, la carichicò,
  È gran tempo che l'aspetto.
  Ma del cor che mai farò?
  La mia immagine ci metto,
  la gnicche, la gnocche, la carichicò.
