Chi a martello

 

 

Elias Dupré _Chi a martello_

by Concentus Musicus MN, Arthur Maud, dir. | 'City States' 1986, Mary Earl - soprano, Daryl Peterson - shawm

Chi å martello Dio gli’l toglia,

Chi’o ne son al tutto fore.

Ho mutato stile e voglia,

Ho raccolto mecho il core.

Cantian donque con amore,

Con Serena e lieta fronte:

E quando andarastu al monte,

Be pegoraro,

Fradel mio caro, oime!
