Italian.png Italian text

Lieve son al par del vento;
vario ho il volto, il piè fugace;
or m'adiro, e in un momento
or mi torno a serenar.

Sollevar le moli oppresse
pria m'alletta, poi mi piace d’atterrar
le moli stesse che ho sudato a sollevar.

A chi serena io miro
chiaro è di notte il cielo
torna per lui nel gelo
la terra a germogliar.

Ma se a taluno io giro
torbido il guardo e fosco,
fronde gli niega il bosco
onde non trova in mar.
