from Volkslieder (Folksongs)
Translation by Paul Heyse (1830 - 1914)

Alla città di Penna
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Ce l'ho un amante alla Città di Penna,
e l'altro l'ho al bel porto d'Ancona:
n'ho uno sul gran pian della Maremma,
l'altro a Viterbo ch'è terra di Roma:
ne ho uno giù pel pian del Casentino,
quello del mio paese è più vicino:
ne ho uno verso il pian della Magione,
quattro alla Fratta, e diece a Castiglione.

Ich hab' in Penna einen Liebsten wohnen,
In der Maremmenebne einen andern,
Einen im schönen Hafen von Ancona,
Zum Vierten muß ich nach Viterbo wandern;
Ein Andrer wohnt in Casentino dort,
Der Nächste lebt mit mir am selben Ort,
Und wieder einen hab' ich in Magione,
Vier in La Fratta, zehn in Castiglione.
