from Volkslieder (Folksongs)

E voi mi domandate in cortesia
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
E voi mi domandate in cortesia 
Chi fu delli miei versi lo maestro? 
Io l'ho dentro del cor la poesia, 
E canto quello che mi detta l' estro.
Il giorno che ho veduto la mia Nena
La mente mi sentii di versi piena:
Il giorno che la Nena m' ha sorriso 
Io l'ho veduto tutto il paradiso: 
Ed oggi che la Nena il cor mi dona
Io son poeta e re di gran corona.
