La luna s'è venuta a lamentare

Language: Italian

La luna s'è venuta a lamentare
Inde la faccia del divino Amore:
Dice che in cielo non ci vuol piú stare;
Ché tolto gliel'avete lo splendore.
E si lamenta, e si lamenta forte.
L'ha conto le sue stelle, non son tutte.
E gliene manca due, e voi l'avete:
Son que' du' occhi che in fronte tenete.
