TESTO DEL LIED

"I saw thee weep"
di George Gordon Noel Byron, Lord Byron (1788-1824)

I saw thee weep - the big bright tear
Came o'er that eye of blue;
And then me thought it did appear
A violet dropping dew.
I saw thee smile - the sapphire's blue
Beside thee ceased to shine;
It could not match the living rays
That fill'd that glance of thine.
