Quando, bellino, al cielo salirai

Language: Italian

Quando, bellino, al cielo salirai,
Ti verrò incontro con il cuore in mano:
Tu pien d'amore al sen m'abbraccerai
Ed io ti menerò dal gran [Sovrano]1.
Il Sovrano, veduto il nostro amore,
Farà dei cuori innamorati un cuore;
[Ed]2 un cuore [solo]3 farà [de' nostri]4 cuori,
In Paradiso, in mezzo alli splendori!
