by Arrigo Enrico Boito (1842 - 1918)

Serenata provenzale
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Ten vieni, o bella, nel gentil paese
dove vibran le cetre e le mandole,
dove nasce la vaga sirventese,
dove si canta in rimate parole. 
Ten vieni ed io ti guarderò, mio nume,
dai mali e dalle lotte e dai viventi
come si para colla palma un lume,
come si para un lume in mezzo ai venti.
