Dimi, Amor, sono stelle (Anonymous, set by F. Ugoni da Maleo) (The Lied and Art Song Texts Page: Texts and Translations to Lieder, mélodies, canzoni, and other classical vocal music)


Dimi, Amor, sono stelle
O soli gl'occhi ond'io
Pasco dei cari sguardi 'l bel desìo?
Esser stelle non puono,
S' ardon le stelle quanto ha forza il sole.
Ma se stelle non son luci sì belle
Che risplendon' il giorno
Saran due soli del tuo viso adorno.
O stelle!  O soli siate!
Dolc' influssi, amorosi occhi mi date!
