L'assiolo canta

Come!

Over the woods the summer night shines serene, and the owl sings.

Come, I want to tell you what I have never said before.

And on the path the stars bloom, those magical flowers.

Let us go forth together, and there in the thicket I will tell you

Why I wept one sad evening, when you were not there.

Let us go forth together.

A mystery invites us,

Listen: the owl sings.
