Va, pensiero, sull?ali dorate;
va, ti posa sui clivi, sui colli,
ove olezzano tepide e molli
l?aure dolci del suolo natal!

Del Giordano le rive saluta,
di Sionne le torri atterrate?
O mia patria s� bella e perduta!
O membranza s� cara e fatal!

Arpa d?or dei fatidici vati,
perch� muta dal salice pendi?
Le memorie nel petto raccendi,
ci favella del tempo che fu!

O simile di Solima ai fati
traggi un suono di crudo lamento,
o t?ispiri il Signore un concento
che ne infonda al patire virt�.
