by Giovanni Faustini (1615 - 1651)
Ohimè taci ben mio
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Ohimè taci ben mio, o dio, che parli, o dio. Pria produrranno l'ombre il lume, ed il calore, ch'io ti sia traditore: scendano pur dal cielo vestite d'uman velo le sostanze più belle, che non potranno mai delle tue vaghe stelle ritormi infido a rai. Ohimè taci ben mio, oh dio, che parli, oh dio.
