The sun each morning, on his way,

Calls for me at the Zattere;

I wake and greet him, I go out,

Meet him, and follow him about;

We spend the day together, he

Goes to bed early; as for me,

I make the moon my mistress, prove

Constant to my inconstant love.

For she is coy with me, will hie

To my arms amorously, and fly
