Ecco ch'un altra volta

Ecco ch'un altra volta o piagge apriche,
Udrete il piant'e i gravi miei lamenti;
Udrete, selve, i dolorosi accenti
E'l tristo suon de le querele antiche.
Udrai tu, mar, l'usate mie fatiche,
E i pesci al mio languir staranno intenti.
Staran pietose a'miei sospiri ardenti
Quest'aure che mi fur gran tempo amiche.
E se di vero amor qualche scintilla
Regna fra questi sassi,
Avran mercede del cor che desiando ard'e sfavilla.
Ma, lasso a me, che valse già nol crede
Quella ch'io sol vorrei ver me tranquilla,
Ne le lagrime mie m'acquistan fede.
