Preghiera del mattino

O Dio, che ti riveli
Nel sole alto dei cieli
Che annunzia il nuovo dì,
Fa' che del sol la fiamma
Scaldi il babbo e la mamma
Per cent'anni così!
Fa' ch'io sia sempre buono
E dammi il tuo perdono
S'io cada in qualche error;
Fa' che nel mondo ov'io
Debbo vivere, o Dio, 
Sien tutti buoni ognor.

by Luigi Bertelli (1858-1920)
