Addio, fanciulla
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Addio, fanciulla addio, Doman ritorno al mar. Lasciami ti diss'io, Tu mi volesti amar. Or piangi, ed al tuo pianto Sento strapparmi il cor; Io non sapea che tanto Desse di pene amor! Ricordati: una sera Insiem vagando in mar, Ti dissi: a primavera Io ti dovrò lasciar. Tu il capo allor chinasti Con trepid'ansietà, Ma il dì che paventasti Domani spunterà!
