by Giovanni Battista Guarini (1538 - 1612)
Corrente
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Io morirò d'Amore, S'al mio scampo non vien sdegno e furore, Poichè madonna à la mia vera fede Solo del finto Amor vuol dar mercede. E perchè del mio foco Prende solazzo e gioco, Se qualche giel non tempra tant'ardore, Io morirò d'Amore.
