Ecco mormorar l'onde

Ecco mormorar l'onde
e tremolar le fronde
a l'aura mattutina e gl'arborscelli.
E sovra i [verdi]1 rami i vaghi augelli
cantar soavemente
e rider l'oriente
ecco già l'alba appare
e si specchia nel mare
e rasserena il cielo
e [le campagne]1 imperla il dolce gelo
e gl'alti monti indora.
O bella e vagh'aurora
l'aura è tua messagiera, e tu de l'aura
ch'ogn'arso cor ristaura.

Maintenant l'eau murmure
Language: French (Français)  after the Italian (Italiano)
Maintenant l'eau murmure
Et les feuilles tremblent
Dans la brise du matin ainsi que les arbustes
Et sur les rameaux verts les beaux oiseaux
Chantent suavement,
Et l'est sourit.
Voici que l'aube apparaît,
Et se mire dans la mer,
Et éclaire le ciel,
Et transforme en perles la douce rosée,
Et les hautes montagnes en or.
Ô belle et adorable aurore,
La brise est ta messagère, et toi celle de la brise,
Qui rafraîchit tous les cœurs brûlants.
