Ferma il piede
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Our translations:  FRE
Ferma il piede o traditore.
Non t'avvedi
ch'a miei danni
tess'inganni
per traffiger il mio core.
Ferma il piede o traditore.
Ne gl'avori di quel seno
sta la gioia del mio affetto
se t'accosti in un baleno.
Tu mi rubbi il cor dal petto
dunque tropo m'offendi
se qual Ape pretendi
per mio mal.
Di succhia il mio bel fiore.
Ferma il piede.
Ma se tenti quella bocca
cerchi insieme il tuo perire
poi ch'il ciel fulmini scoccha
contro ogn'un, ch'usa tradire
e più fieri gh'aventa
contro ogni cor, che tenta
d'ingannar chi è legato in man d'Amore.
Ferma il piede.
