Der Mond ist untergegangen,
kein Sternlein hellt die Nacht;
vor seiner Liebsten Fenster
hält treu Angiolo Wacht.

Ein Band von blauer Seide
kauft' ich am heut'gen Tag
im Ghetto von den Juden,
die Gott verdammen mag.

Wie zierlich soll die Schleife
an deiner Schulter steh'n,
wenn aus der Porta Pia
wir nach der Vigne geh'n!

Den Saltarello tanzet
doch keine so wie du,
und keiner schlägt die Zither
so schön als ich dazu.

Am nächsten heil'gen Tage,
da woll'n wir glücklich sein,
doch öffne jetzt das Pförtchen
und lass den Freund herein!
