Ecco mormorar l'onde
e tremolar le fronde
a l'aura mattutina e gl'arborscelli.
E sovra i  ...  rami i vaghi augelli
cantar soavemente
e rider l'oriente
ecco già l'alba appare
e si specchia nel mare
e rasserena il cielo
e  ...  imperla il dolce gelo
e gl'alti monti indora.
O bella e vagh'aurora
l'aura è tua messagiera, e tu de l'aura
ch'ogn'arso cor ristaura.
