Un organetto suona per la via
 (Sung text for setting by G. Velasquez)
 Matches original text
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Un organetto suona per la via,
La mia fenestra è aperta e vien la sera.
Sale dai campi alla stanzuccia mia
Un alito gentil di primavera.

Non so perché mi tremino i ginocchi,
Non so perché mi salga il pianto agli occhi.

Ecco, io chino la testa sulla mia mano
E penso a te che sei cosí lontano.
