Odi quelrusignolo <br /> <br />Che va di ramo in ramo <br /> <br />Cantado; io amo; io amo. <br /> <br /> Tasso's Aminta <br /> <br /> <br />This mournful heart can dream of nought but thee, <br /> <br /> As with slow steps among these shades I move, <br /> <br />And hear the nightingale from tree to tree <br /> <br /> Sighing "I love! I love!" <br /> <br /> <br />This mournful heart wakes to one thought alone <br /> <br /> That still our fatal parting will renew, <br /> <br />To hear that bird when Spring's last eve is gone <br /> <br /> Sighing "Adieu! Adieu!"<br /><br />Louisa Stuart Costello<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/song-this-mournful-heart/
