La rosa
 (Sung text for setting by L. Pantaleoni)
 Matches base text
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
È vezzosa, 
sí, la rosa
odorosa,
porporina,
ma la spina
è così acerba,
che sdegnosa,
che superba
alla rosa
ognun dirà.
Semplicetta
la viola,
ti diletta, 
ti consola,
non pretende,
non diffunde
ne l'odor ne la beltà.
Essa è bella e non lo fà.
Mia Nigella,
tu sei quella
nella tua semplicità!

Composition:

    Set to music by Luigi Pantaleoni (d. 1872), "La rosa"
