Ninna‑nanna di S. Uliva

Language: Italian (Italiano)

Available translation(s): ENG

Gesù ti guarda, Gesù ti culla,
Dormi sereno, figlio di Re.
Splendono gli astri sulla tua culla.
Sia dolce il sonno, Iddio è con te,
Tra lotte ardenti, guerre e tornei
Un gran Monarca ti generò.
Ei t'ha affidato ai voti miei,
Donna ferita, ti veglierò;
Gesù ti guarda, Gesù ti culla...
