Montanina
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Chosen for Diff
Scende al pian la montanina, va pel ciel la sua canzon, l'ombra incontro le cammina, piange il vento pei burron. Ella vien cantando il riso, le dolcezze dell'amor, e miseria mostra in viso, mostra l'improbo lavor! Mai per lei, o sole, un'ora non avesti di piacer, l'ombra nera la divora, tace triste sul sentier . . .
