Godere, e tacere

Giosca al gioir nostro
E l'aura e l'onda
Scherzin tra l'erbe e i fiori
I lascivetti Amori
A nostri dolci canti
Eccho risponde
In questo lieto e fortunato giorno
Volin le Grazie intorno
vengan sul labbro i cori
E s'annodino l'alme
Al suon de' baci
Ah, non dir più
Mia lingua, taci.

by Giulio Strozzi (1583-1660)
