Original text and translations

Italian text

Hor che la vaga aurora,
sovra un caro di foco
appar in ogni loco,
co’l figlio di Latona,

che’l suo dorato crine
a l’Alpi e a le campagne
à noi vicine mostra
con dolci accenti
questi la ben temprata lira suona

onde gli spirti
pellegrini intenti
odono l’armonia
che l’alme nostre al ciel erg’et invia.
