L'amante impaziente
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Available translation(s): ENG FRE SPA
Che fa, che fa il mio bene?
Perchè, perché non viene?
Vedermi vuole languir
Così, così, così!
Oh come è lento nel corso il sole!
Ogni momento mi sembra un dì,
Che fa, che fa il mio bene?
Perchè, perché non viene?
Vedermi vuole languir
Così, così, così!

The impatient lover
Language: English  after the Italian (Italiano)
What is my darling doing?
Perhaps she will not come?
She likes to see me pine away
Like this ........
How slowly the sun runs its course,
Every second's like a day.
What is my darling doing?
Perhaps she will not come ....... ?
She likes to see me pine away
Like this ........
