Nel giardino
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Our translations:  ENG
Mormora nel giardino a piè del colle
Una musica dolce, un'armonia
Di note gravi ne la sera pia,
Mentre l'effluvio de le pie corolle
Sommessamente in lievi onde,
In lievi onde si estolle,
Balsamando di sé tutta la via.
Muore nel cielo e palpita una stria
Ultima d'oro; e su da l'erba molle
I mille trilli tremano dal lago,
Dove l'acqua specchiante
Abbrividisce tacita al suono
Vanescente e vago di quella
Triste musica di sera...
Il giardino nel sonno illanguidisce
Voluttuoso de la primavera.
