by Rocco Emanuele Pagliara (1856 - 1914)

No... svaniti non sono i sogni, e cedo
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Our translations:  ENG GER
No... svaniti non sono i sogni, e cedo,
e m'abbandono a le carezze loro:
chiudo li occhi pensosi e ti rivedo
come in un nimbo di faville d'oro!

Tu mi soridi amabilmente, e chiedo
de'lunghi affanni miei gentil ristoro!
A le dolci lusinghe ancora io credo
a'l ricantar de le speranze in coro.

Ecco... io tendo le mani! ecco a'l rapito pensier
già tutto esulta, e un vivo foco
di sospir, di desío corre le vene!

Ma... tu passi ne l'aere, a'l par di lene
nuvola dileguante a poco a poco,
per lontano orizzonte ... indefinito!
