O MIE BESTIE SELVATICHEMY WILDINGS AND LITTLE WILDINGS
  
- O mie bestie selvatiche,- My wildings and little wildings,
miei cervi ammansiti,my tamed deer,
ditemi, dove sono i posti dove state,tell me, where are your lands
dove sono le vostre tane?and where your winter quarters?
  
- I dirupi sono i posti dove stiamo,- Cliffs are our lands,
le alte cime sono le nostre tane,leskes* are our winter quarters,
le anguste grotte della montagnathe little caves of the mountain
sono le nostre dimore.are our parents.
