Chi il bel sogno di Doretta (Italian lyrics):
Chi il bel sogno di Doretta Potè indovinar?
Il suo mister come mai
Come mai fini
Ahimè! un giorno uno student
In bocca la baciò
E fu quel bacio
Rivelazione
Fu la passione!
Folle amore!
Folle ebbrezza!
Chi la sottil carezza
D'un bacio così ardente
Mai ridir potrà?
Ah! mio sogno!
Ah! mia vita!
Che importa la ricchezza
Se alfine è rifiorita
La felicità!
O sogno d'or
Poter amar così!
