Notturno
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Our translations: ENG
Già della Notte Oscuro regna l'ombroso lume E tu non dormi ancora Anima mia perché? Volge le molle piume Dolce amor mio nume Le tue pupille Languide portate a riposar. Ch'io con dolce foco Tutto farò pale Se la fiamma che m'acese Per farti addormentar.
