Available translation(s): ENG GRE GRE POR
La vezzosa pastorella
Va cogliendo in sul mattino
E la rosa e il gelsomino
Per il fido [caro] suo pastor.
Ma qual cruda, acerba pena
Gli si desta in mezzo al core.
Più non vede il suo pastore,
Più non trova il suo tesor!

The lovely shepherdess
Language: English  after the Italian (Italiano)
The lovely shepherdess
goes out in the morning, gathering
both the rose and the jasmine
for her faithful [dear] shepherd.
But what cruel, bitter pain
Arises from deep in her heart:
She no longer sees her shepherd,
She no longer finds her treasure!
