Il Zeffiro (Anonymous, set by V. Bellini) (The Lied and Art Song Texts Page: Texts and Translations to Lieder, mélodies, canzoni, and other classical vocal music)


Venticel, che l'ali d'oro
Vai battendo a me d'appresso,
Se vedesti il mio tesoro,
Dimmi, o caro, dimmi ov'è.
Ah! se il loco ov'ei soggiorna
Penetrar non m'è concesso,
Zeffiretto, a lui ritorna
E favellagli per me.
