Che fa, che fa il mio bene?
Perchè, perché non viene?
Vedermi vuole languir 
Così, così, così!
Oh come è lento nel corso il sole!
Ogni momento mi sembra un dì,
Che fa, che fa il mio bene?
Perchè, perché non viene?
Vedermi vuole languir 
Così, così, così!

Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Italian (Italiano) 
So muß ich ihm entsagen,
Dem lang' genährten Hoffen,
Und meiner Sehnsucht Klagen
Verhallen still im Schmerz!
Kehret ihr nimmer, zu schnell, ach! entschwunden,
Himmlische Stunden, mir nie zurück,
Wie fühlt' ich mich so selig!
Wie scherzte leicht und fröhlich
Um mich der Augenblick!
Der Augenblick!
