Representative lyrics
Italian (Original Language)
Va, pensiero, sull’ali dorate; Va, ti posa sui clivi, sui colli, Ove ̑olezzano tiepide ̑e molli L’aure dolci del suolo natal! Del giordano le rive saluta, Di Sionne le torri atterrate… Oh mia patria sì bella ̑e perduta! Oh membranza sì cara ̑e fatal! Arpa d’or dei fatidici vati, perché muta dal salice pendi? Le memorie nel petto riaccendi, ci favella del tempo che fu! O simìle di Solima ̑i fati Traggi ̑un suono di crudo lamento, O t’ispiri ̑il Signore ̑un concento Che ne ̑infonda ̑al patire virtù, Che ne ̑infonda ̑al patire virtù, Che ne ̑infonda ̑al patire virtù, al patire virtù!
