Come vivrò
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Chosen for Diff
Come vivrò ne le mie pene, Amore, Si lunge dal mio core, Se la dolce memoria non m'aita Di lei ch'è la mia vita? Dolce memoria e spene, Imaginata vista e caro oggetto, Vol sete li mio diletto, La mia vita e 'l mio bene; Ma pur mezzo son io tra morto e vivo, Perchè del cor son privo.
