In un boschetto trovai pastorella (Cavalcanti) (The Lied and Art Song Texts Page: Texts and Translations to Lieder, mélodies, canzoni, and other classical vocal music)


In un boschetto trovai pastorella,
più che la stella bella al mio parere.
Capegli avea biondetti e ricciutelli,
e gli occhi pien d'amour cera roseta;
Con sua vergletta pastura agnelli
e scalza e di rugiada era bagnata;
cantava come fosse inamorata
era adornata di tutto piacere.
D'amour la salutai immantenente
e domandai s'avesse compagnia:
ed ella mi rispuorse dolcemente
che sola sola per lo bosco gia.
