by Giovanni Gherardini (1778 - 1861)

Accusata di furto... Oh, rossore!
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Accusata di furto... Oh, rossore!    
Condannata, punita mia figlia?...
Ah, qual nube m'ingombra le ciglia!
Freddo il sangue mi piomba sul cor.
Condannata!... Ah, si vada, si cerchi...
Ma che fo?... Son confuso, perplesso:
se mi scopro, oh Dio! Io perdo me stesso;
se più tardo, ella forse... Oh, spavento!...
Che cimento! Che fiero dolor!
(riscuotendosi)
Ah, lungi il timore!
Si tenti la sorte:
coraggio, mio core,
si sprezzi la morte:
la figlia diletta
si corra a salvar.
Coraggio, mio core;
vo' tutto arrischiar.
