Italian text
Come la notte ogni fiammella è viva
E riman spenta subito ch'aggiorna
Così quando il mio sol di se mi priva
Mi leva incontra il rio timor le corna.
Ma non sì tosto a l'orizzonte arriva
Che il timor fugge e la speranza torna.
Deh torna a me, deh torna o caro lume
E scaccia il rio timor che mi consume.
