Biondina

Language: Italian

Biondina bella, se tu fossi mia,
Ti vestirei di bianco tutta quanta,
Sì che paressi la Vergine Maria,
O qualche santa.

Ti condurrei così nella chiesetta,
Là dove m'han portato a battezzare,
E là ti vorrei fatta una nicchietta
Sopra l'altare.

E bramerei che l'organo suonato 
Da qualche Serafin del Paradiso
Mi facesse morire inebriato
Sul tuo bel viso


Input by Ferdinando Albeggiani
