La lontananza

Language: Italian (Italiano)

Our translations: CAT

Lungi o cara da te, chi mi consola ?
Il mio pensiero teco ognor soggiorna
E se il chiamo non ode e a me s'invola
Non ode la mia voce e più non torna.
Deh! Che faró qui abbandonato e solo
Lungi o cara da te chi mi consola.

Se de' bei dì passati al cor mi viene
Dolcissima talor la rimembranza
Non, non fia che abbian conforto le mie pene,
Dura troppo è per me la lontananza !
E sempre il mio pensier a te s'invola...
Ma lungi, oh Dio! lungi da te chi mi consola ?

La llunyania

Language: Catalan (Català) after the Italian (Italiano)

Lluny de tu, estimada, qui em consola?
El meu pensament sempre sojorna en tu
i si el crido, no em sent, i fuig de mi,
no sent la meva veu i mai més no torna.
Ah! què faré aquí abandonat i sol?
Lluny de tu, estimada, qui em consola?

Si dels bells dies passats em ve al cor
de vegades el record dolcíssim,
no, que no trobin consol les meves penes.
És massa dura per a mi la llunyania!
I el meu pensament vola sempre cap a tu...
Però lluny, oh Déu!, lluny de tu, qui em consola?
