Dite o del foco mio
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Dite o del foco mio Bellissima cagion, luci spietate, E pur volete ch'io, Senza sperar già mai, Incontro al folgorar de' vostri rai, Schermo alcun di pietate, Amando e desiando mi consumi. Ah! dolcissimi lumi, Non vedete negli occhi aperto il core Che cener fatt' ancor si strugg'e more?
