Il ritrovo
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Di già notte oscura sul prato stende il vel:
È l’ora sicura del mio pastor fedel.
Non muovasi un accento
Che può tradirci il vento: ei tosto giungerà.
Tra la la etc.

Lesbin del villaggio chiude il più gentil cor;
Fra tutti egli è il più saggio e il più felice ancor.
Io già parlar lo sento
E domandar contento un bacio ch’egli avrà.
Tra la la etc.

Ma l’ora s’avanza ed ei non giunge ancor.
Ah! Che vêr questa stanza più non lo spinge amor.
Come mi batte il petto
Per tema e per sospetto lo vedo: eccolo là; ei viene qua.
Tra la la etc.
