Fior di ginestra
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Our translations:  ENG GER
A
 Fior di ginestra,
 io sono lo scolar, voi la maestra.
 Guardandovi ne'l volto tutto imparo:
 voi la maestra siete, io lo scolaro!

B
 Così dicea la dolce serenata,
 così dicea la serenata mesta...
 Dunque, su'l volto mio,
 imparasti l'oblío?

A
 Fior di viola,
 sconsolata fra tutte è un'alma sola:
 su'l suo sentier non brilla amor né speme.
 Vogliamo, o bella, far la strada insieme?

B
 Così dicea la dolce serenata,
 così dicea la serenata mesta...
 
A
 Vogliamo, o bella, far la strada insieme?

B
 Ed ora... ove sei tu?
 Vedi, son sola!
 e piango, e piango, e piango!
