Rimpianto
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Our translations:  ENG GER SPA
Come un sogno d'or
scolpito è nel core.
Il ricordo ancor 
di quell'amore che non esiste più.

Fu la sua vision
qual dolce sorriso
che più lieta fa,
col suo brillar, la nostra gioventù.

Ma fu molto breve in me
la dolcezza di quel ben... 
svanì quell bel sogno d'or
lasciando in me il dolor.

Cupo è l'avvenir,
sempre più tristi i dì... 
la gioventù passata sarà 
rimpianto mi resta sol, sì ...

Rimpianto amaro e duol' nel cuor!
Oh raggio di sole,
Sul mio cammino ahimè, non brilli più.
Mai più, mai più!
