Tradimento!
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Our translations:  FRE
Amore e la speranza
voglion farmi prigioniero,
e a tal segno il mal s'avanza
ch'ho scoperto ch'il pensiero
dice d'esserne contento.
Tradimento!
La speranza per legarmi
a gran cose mi lusinga,
s'io le credo avvien che stringa
lacci sol da incatenarmi.
Mio core all'armi!
S'incontri l'infida
si prenda s'uccida su presto!
è periglioso ogni momento.
Tradimento!
