Nave altera che in mezzo all'onde
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Our translations:  FRE
Nave altera che in mezzo all'onde,
nell'orror di notte oscura,
agitata è da due venti
ferma sta, e non sa
qual di lor la spinga al porto.

Così l'alma che si confonde
fra due stimoli possenti
pensa fra sè qual è
quel che giova al suo conforto.
