Longe da te, cor mio
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Available translation(s): FRE
Longe da te, cor mio, struggomi di dolore, di dolcezz'e d'amore. Ma torna omai, deh torna! E se'l destino strugger vorrammi ancor a te vicino, sfavilli e splenda il tuo bel lume amato ch'io n'arda e mora, e morirò beato.
