by Anna Lolli , as Nino Pareto

Bimba bionda
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
O bimba bionda, o dolce amor mio santo, 
mi porta il vento l'eco del tuo amore 
e nel notturno mistico languore 
m'insegue la tristezza del tuo canto. 

Dimmi, perché ti vedo sconsolata 
volgere lungi l'occhio incerto e lento? 
Perché nel coro piangere ti sento 
le lacrime dell' alma tua straziata?

In mi confida, o cara bimba, e spera; 
col tuo sorriso dammi forza ancora.
già spunta in cielo l'agognata aurora
di quell'amor che non conosce sera!

Note: the name "Nino Pareto" is an anagram of Pietro and Anna.
