Lyrics:
Addio, fiorito asil
di letizia e d'amor...
Sempre il mite suo sembiante
con strazio atroce vedrò.
Addio, fiorito asil...
Non reggo al tuo squallor...
Fuggo, fuggo...son vil!
Translation:
Farewell, flowery refuge
Of happiness and love!
I shall always be tortured
By the sight of her sweet face
Farewell, flowery refuge
Your dreariness I cannot bear
Ah, your dreariness I cannot bear
I must go, I must go, ah, how I despise myself!
Farewell, your dreariness I cannot bear
Ah, how I despise myself
Ah, how I despise myself!
