by Giovanni Battista Casti (1724 - 1803)
Infedel! tu pria m'inganni
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Infedel! tu pria m'inganni, poi m'insulti e mi deridi; ah che troppo intesi e vidi, troppo vedo e intendo ancor. Più non credo a un cor fallace e ad un labbro mentitor. (Per chi mai perdei la pace! Per chi mai m'accese amor.)
