Era di maggio

Language: Italian (Italiano) after the German (Deutsch)

Era di maggio nel dolce mese, 
quando dal germe sboccia ogni fior
Sbocciò l'amor 
l'amor s'accese entro il mio cor.

Era di maggio nel doce mese 
quando cantavano tutti gli augei
il mio desir le fei 
palese e i voti miei.

Era di maggio nel dolce mese, 
quando dal germe sboccia ogni fior.
