L'esule
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Our translations:  ENG
Qui sempre ride il cielo,
qui verde ognor la fronda,
qui del ruscello l'onda
dolce mi scorre al pie';
ma questo suol non è
la Patria mia.

Qui nell'azzurro flutto
sempre si specchia il sole;
i gigli e le viole
crescono intorno a me;
ma questo suol non è
la Patria mia

Le vergini son vaghe
come le fresche rose
che al loro crin compose
amor pegno di fe';
ma questo suol non è
la Patria mia.

Nell'Itale contrade
è una città Regina;
la Ligure marina
sempre le bagna il pie'.
La ravvisate, ell'è
la Patria mia.
