Non ho parole
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Non ho parole... voglio dire amore. Sento una melodia che non ha note; Ma da la folla mi si leva intorno Calda e ridente una canzon d'amore, E v'è il profumo de la primavera Ne l'aria immota nel tramonto chiaro. Non ho parole... voglio dire amore E donare all' amore il tuo sembiante E donare all' amore il nome tuo. Non ho parole... voglio dire amore!
