Fantasia lunare
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
E lenta la schiera s’avvia
siccome una pallida scìa 
che scorti in la notte lunare 
di tacite navi l’andare …

S’avvia a un eremo di pace, 
ove tutto riposa e si tace, 
ove un fiore dolente si sfiora, 
se un pallido sole l’indora, 
e vanno nell’ombra così …

Dolcissima morta sei qui?

La cerca nel tacito eremo
O dove amore
O amore supremo!
O amore dagl’occhi radiosi,
O dove, dove riposi?
