by Francesco Cimmino (1862 - 1938)

Inverno triste!
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Ho veduto languir nel lungo oblio
Il nido che per noi l'amor compose;
Come i sogni del povero amor mio,
Ho veduto morir l'ultime rose.

Il core mi diceva: È forse eterno
Il sorriso del sol sui campi in fiore?
Ed or che viene sovra i campi il verno,
Io più triste lo sento entro il mio core!

In un novo desio tu dunque assorto
Non pensi ai dì trascorsi, un sol momento?
Simile al freddo oblio che cinge un morto
È quel che copre l'amor tuo già spento!

E un'altra or ode le parole istesse
Con cui tu mi giuravi amore eterno;
Ma, s'ella ha fede ne le tue promesse,
Dopo l'aprile anch'ella avrà l'inverno!
