by Luigi Romanelli (1751 - 1839)

Ombretta sdegnosa del Missipipì
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
«Ombretta sdegnosa    
del Missipipì,
non far la ritrosa,
ma resta un po' qui.»
«Non posso, non voglio,»
l'ombretta risponde:
«son triglia di scoglio,
ti basti così.»
E l'altro ripiglia:
«Sei luccio, non triglia.»
Qui nasce un insieme:
chi piange, chi freme.
Fantesca - «Sei luccio.»
Ombretta - «Son triglia.»
Fantesca - «Ma resta.»
Ombretta - «Ti basti,
ti basti, t'arresta,
non dirmi così.»
