Poi che volse la mia stella
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Poi che volse la mia stella 
Per mirar l’altra beltade 
D’un’ alpestra villanella 
Che perdese libertade, 
Cantar voglio mille fiade 
Per sfogar il cieco ardore: 
Che fa la ramacina caro amor 
Deh che fa la che non ven? 

Vaga e bella in sé racolta 
Io la vidi in un chiar fonte 
A lavar la prima volta 
Ch’io mirai sua bella fronte 
Tal che ognhor per piani e monte 
Vo cantando a tutte l’hore: 
Che fa la ramacina caro amor… 

Quante volte alla dolce ombra 
D’uno abetto un faggio un pino 
Come fa l’hom che disgombra 
Suo crudele e fier destino 
Da la sera al matutino 
Ho cantato con fervore: 
Che fa la ramacina caro amor… 

Mentre per le ombrose valli 
Gli occelletti cantaranno 
Mentri i liquidi cristalli 
Giù dai monti scenderanno 
Mai mei spirti non seranno 
Stanchi de cantar col core: 
Che fa la ramacina caro amor…
