Dimmi, Amor, dimmi che fa
La mia cara libertà?
Da che andò, come sai tu,
Alegarsi ad un bel crine,
Questo cor pien di ruine
Non l'ha poi rivista più!
Dimmi, Amor, dimmi che fa
La mia cara libertà?

Un pensier il cor mandò
A trovarla in sue catene;
Ma per crescer le mie pene
Il pensier mai non tornò!
Dimmi, Amor, dimmi che fa
La mia cara libertà?
Dimmi, Amor, dimmi che fa
La mia cara libertà?
