by Giovanni Battista Lorenzi (1721 - 1807)

Ah, che il core mi si spezza:
 (Sung text for setting by G. Paisiello)
 Matches base text
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
(Ah, che il core mi si spezza:  
Cilla mia, non posso più.)
Me ne vado e prego il cielo,
che a misura del suo zelo
gridi ognuno dalle... dalle:
ah, il baston per le sue spalle
vada sempre su e giù;
onde possa nella storia
la sua gloria andar più su.
Signorsì, sto singhiozzando:
così vado discacciando
dal mio cor la debolezza,
per lasciarci la virtù.
(Ah, che il core mi si spezza:
Cilla mia, non posso più.)

Composition:

    Set to music by Giovanni Paisiello (1740 - 1816), "Ah, che il core mi si spezza:", 1775, first performed 1775
