by Giovanni Camerana (1845 - 1905)

Romanza
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Jeri al sole io guardava,
Nell’ora che sui lividi boschi riverberava
L’occiduo suo splendor.

E come se il mio fato
Col giorno avesse a spegnersi, 
Al fuggente ho gridato:

Un po’ di luce, un po’ di luce ancor.
Oggi oh memoria! Oh idea!
Sulla mia fronte pallida
Il tuo labbro piovea baci
E fiamme d’amor;

E poi che in te il mio fato 
Vive e morrà,
Nell’estasi profonda
Io t’ho gridato:
un bacio ancor!
