Quando sarà quel dì?
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Quando sarà quel dì
Ch'io mi veggia da te favorito d'un sì?
Cara bocca, dillo tu;
Se a' caratteri di rose 
Che sul labbro amor ti pose,
Mi fai legger: servitù?

Conto l'ore ad una ad una
Come fosser anni interi:
Ma nel colmo dei pensieri,
Trovo scarsa la fortuna.
E se viver si puo più,
Cara bocca, dillo tu;
Se a' caratteri di rose
Che sul labbro amor ti pose,
Mi fai legger: servitù?

La mia fede m'assicura
Che parlar sempre di no quella donna mai non può,
Che fè bella la natura.
E se viver si può più,
Cara bocca, dillo tu;
Se a' caratteri di rose
Che sul labbro amor ti pose,
Mi fai legger: servitù?
