Lento cavalca per valle ombrose un giovinciel! "Vado tra dolci braccia amorose, O vado invece nel cupo avel?" L'eco risponde: "Nel cupo avel!" Il suo cammino seguita mesto il giovinciel! "Nell'avel dunque vado sì presto, or ben? Che monta? La pace è in quel!" L'eco risponde: "La pace è in quel!" Cadon dall'occhio stille segrete al giovinciel! "Ah! Se il solo avello mi dà quete, Lieto vi scendo, dolce è l'avel!" L'eco risponde: "dolce è l'avel!"
