Cor mio, deh, non languire Matches base text
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Cor mio, deh, non languire, Che fai teco languir l'anima mia. Odi i caldi sospiri: a te gl'invia La pietat'e 'l desire. S'io ti potessi dar morend'aita, Morrei per darti vita. Ma viv'ohimè, ch'ingiustamente more Chi vivo tien ne l'altrui pett'il core.
