by Giovanni Battista Guarini (1538 - 1612)
Ombrose e care selve
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Ombrose e care selve, se sospirando in flebili sussurri al nostro lamentar vi lamentaste, gioite anco al gioire, e tante lingue sciogliete quante frondi scherzando al suon di queste piene del gioir nostro aure ridenti. Cantate le venture e le dolcezze d'Amarilli e di Tirsi, avventurosi amanti.
