“La pastorella dell’Alpi”
“Son bella pastorella”
Versi del Conte Carlo Pepoli (1796 – 1881)

Son bella pastorella,
che scende ogni mattino
ed offre un cestellino
di fresche frutta e fior.

Chi viene al primo albore
avrà vezzose rose
E poma rugiadose,
venite al moi gairdin,
Ah!

Chi del notturno orrore
Smari la buona via,
alla capanna mia
ritrovera il cammin.

Venite o passagiero,
La pastorella è qua,
Ma il fior del suo pensiero
Ad uno solo darà!
Ah!

“The alpine shepherdess”
“I am the beautiful shepherdess”
Lyrics by Count Carlo Pepoli (1796 – 1881)

I am the beautiful shepherdess,
Who descends every morning,
And offers a basket full of
Fresh fruit and flowers.
Who comes on the first harvest
Will have nice roses
And very good pommels
Come to my garden.
I am the beautiful shepherdess,
Who descends every morning,
And offers a basket full of
Fresh fruit and flowers.
Ah!

which during the frightened night
The right way is lost,
In my shelter
You will find the fireplace
Come, oh passer-by
The shepherdess is here,
But her inner thoughts
Will only be given to one!
Come, oh passer-by,
The sheperdess is here,
But her inner thoughts
Will only be given to one!
Ah.
