Vaghissima sembianza
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Vaghissima sembianza d'antica donna amata, chi, dunque, v'ha ritratta contanta simiglianza ch'io guardo, e parlo, e credo d'avervi a me davanti come ai bei dì d'amor? La cara rimembranza che in cor mi s'è destata si ardente v'ha già fatta rinascer la speranza, che un bacio, un voto, un grido d'amore più non chiedo che a lei che muta è ognor.
