by Pietro Antonio Domenico Bonaventura Trapassi (1698 - 1782), as Pietro Metastasio
Fra tutte le pene
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Fra tutte le pene V'è pena maggiore? Son presso al mio bene, Sospiro d'amore, E dirgli non oso: Sospiro per te. Mi manca il valore Per tanto soffrire, Mi manca l'ardire Per chieder mercé.
