| Added by douglas-brooks-davies, 05 Dec 2014 After several enquiries, I have decided to arrange and upload this version of Ninna Nanna with the original text. Orazio Michi (1594-1641), known as ’dell’arpa’, was a virtuoso harpist and composer of songs. For a further note on this piece, please see my uploaded English version of Ninna Nanna on this site. I have included verses 1,2 and 7 (final) of the original, which is somewhat long with the chorus as as well. The remaining stanzas are: v. 3 Dormi figlio, e vien’a gl’anni/C’io ti cresco tra gl’affani/Or ch’e tempo di dormire/Verra il tempo di morire/Tra tormenti, pene e noia, Dormi gioia. V. 4 Quelle tempie si divine/Passeran pungenti spine/Or le posa a questo petto?Poi la croce avrai per letto/Dormi e lascia il pianto amaro, Dormi caro. V. 5 Quella fronte ch’ora langue/sudera nel rosso sangue/Quei piedini in novi modi/passeran spuntati chiodi/Questo duol mi passa il cuore, Dormi amore. V. 6 Ecco figlio la mammella/Qual ti piace, questa o quella/Succhia amore il sangue mio/Che l’ha fatto buono Dio/Per far lieto chi ha penato, Dormi amato. | |||
