by Francesco Cimmino (1862 - 1938)

Seconda mattinata
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Our translations:  ENG JPN
Su la villa solitaria
  Splende il sole:
  V'è nell'aria
Un profumo di viole;
Fra le siepi, nelle aiuole,
Degli augelli è gaio il canto:
  Tu soltanto,
  Tu soltanto
Non ti dèsti al novo sole.
  Non il sole, non gli augelli
  L'alba allietano così:
  Se non apri gli occhi belli,
  Non sorride il novo dì.

Quali imagini sì care
  T'han rapita,
  Che vagare
Ti fan lungi da la vita?
Qual parvenza più gradita
Ride in sogno a te daccanto?
  Qual incanto,
  Qual incanto
Al mio sguardo t'ha rapita?
  Pur, se un tenero desio
  Per me chiudi in fondo al cor,
  Se tu sogni l'amor mio,
  Dormi, o bella, dormi ancor!
