In questa tomba oscura
Language: Italian (Italiano)
In questa tomba oscura Lasciami riposar; Quando vivevo, ingrata, Dovevi a me pensar. Lascia che l'ombre ignude Godansi pace almen E non, e non bagnar mie ceneri D'inutile velen.

En esta tumba oscura déjame reposar

En esta tumba oscura déjame reposar Cuando estaba vivo, ingrata, debías haber pensado en mí Deja al menos que los fantasmas desnudos disfruten su paz Y no bañes mis cenizas de inútil veneno.
