by Anonymous / Unidentified Author
Translation by Romain Bussine (1830 - 1899)

Levati sol che la luna' elevata
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Levati sol che la luna' elevata
Leva dagli occhi miei tanto dormire,
Il traditor del sonno m'ha ingan nata,
Il bello amante m'ha fatto sparire,

Se lo ritrovo quell' amor giocondo
Io mai più mi farò tradir del sonno,
Se loritrovo quell' amor gentile,
mai più dal sonno, mi farò tradire

Se lo ritrovo quell' amor giocondo,
Se lo ritrovo quell' amor gentile,
Mai più mai più dal sonno dal sonno
mi faró tradire!

Après un rêve
 (Sung text for setting by J. Jongen)
 Matches base text
Language: French (Français)  after the Italian (Italiano) 
Our translations:  CAT ENG ENG ENG GER GER ITA JPN SPA SPA
Dans un sommeil que charmait ton image 
Je rêvais le bonheur, ardent mirage,
Tes yeux étaient plus doux, ta voix pure et sonore,
Tu rayonnais comme un ciel éclairé par l'aurore ;

Tu m'appelais et je quittais la terre
Pour m'enfuir avec toi vers la lumière,
Les cieux pour nous entr'ouvraient leurs nues,
Splendeurs inconnues, lueurs divines entrevues.

Hélas ! Hélas ! triste réveil des songes
Je t'appelle, ô nuit, rends-moi tes mensonges,
Reviens, reviens radieuse,
Reviens ô nuit mystérieuse !
