by Pietro Antonio Domenico Bonaventura Trapassi (1698 - 1782), as Pietro Metastasio

Io dico all'antro addio
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Our translations:  ENG
Io dico all'antro addio;
Ma quello al pianto mio
Sento che mormorando
Addio risponde.

Sospiro, e i miei sospiri
Ne' replicati giri
Zeffiro rende a me
Da quelle fronde.
