Fortunato augellino

Fortunato augellino,
Che dolce sì fai risonar i colli,
Tu la sera e'l mattino
Del tuo dolce desio gl'occhi satolli.
Lass'io del pianger molli
Gli ho nott'e giorno, e se cantar desio,
Escon voci di duol dal petto mio.
Ma s'al mio ben vicino
M'assido un giorno anch'io,
Farò forse parerti e muto e roco
Cantando i suoi dolci occhi e'l mio bel foco.

by Ottavio Rinuccini (1562-1621)
