Chiome d'oro
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Our translations:  FRE GER
Chiome d'oro,
Bel tesoro,
Tu mi leghi in mille modi
Se t'annodi,
Se ti snodi.

Candidette
Perle elette,
Se le rose che coprite
Discoprite,
mi ferite.

Vive stelle
Che sì belle
E sì vaghe risplendete,
Se ridete
M'ancidete.

Preziose,
Amorose,
Coralline labbra amate,
Se parlate
Mi beate.

O bel nodo
Per cui godo!
O soave uscir di vita!
O gradita
Mia ferita!
