by Pietro Antonio Domenico Bonaventura Trapassi (1698 - 1782), as Pietro Metastasio

Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Pace una volta e calma
lascia ch'io trovi almen,
non risvegliarmi in sen
guerra e tempesta.
 
Tempesta in cui quest'alma
potria smarrirsi ancor,
guerra che al mio candor
saria funesta.
