Soffro, lontan lontano Le nebbie sonnolente Salgono dal tacente Piano. Alto gracchiando, i corvi, Fidati all'ali nere, Traversan le brughiere Torvi. Dell'aere ai morsi crudi Gli addolorati tronchi Offron, pregando, i bronchi Nudi. Come ho freddo!... Son sola; Pel grigio ciel sospinto Un gemito destinto Vola; E mi ripete: Vieni, È buia la vallata. O triste, o disamata, Vieni!

Je souffre, au loin, au loin, Les brumes assoupies S'élèvent de la silencieuse Plaine. En haut, croassant, les corbeaux, leurs ailes noires fidèles, Traversent les landes Sinistres. Aux morsures cruelles des airs Les troncs affligés Offrent, en priant, leurs branches nues. Comme j'ai froid ! Je suis seule ; Jetée à travers le ciel gris Une plainte perceptible Vole ; Et me répète : Viens ; La vallée est sombre. Ô toi qui es triste, mal aimée, Viens !
