by Michelangelo Buonarroti (1475 - 1564)

Il Coro dei Malammogliati
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Il coro dei Malammogliati
Chi imparar vuole a tòr moglie
Mastri esperti eccoci qui;
E diciam che chi la toglie
Dato aver vedrà in duo dì
'N una diavolo infernale,
'N una zucca senza sale.

Me ne stetti al detto altrui:
Un buon uom mi disse: "Fa";
Oh minchion, minchion ch'io fui!
Inciampai (e ben mi sta)
'N una diavola infernale,
'N una zucca senza sale.

Ohimé! Ché per bellezza
Ch'era tutta frondi e fior
Colsi poi frutti d'asprezza,
M'incontrai, ebbro d'amor,
'N una diavola infernale,
'N una zucca senza sale.

Zie, sorelle, madri e nonne
Lo staranno a inzipillar,
E dieci altre mone Cionne
Per finirlo d'affogar
'N una diavola infernale,
'N una zucca senza sale.
