Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo:
Ora il mio uomo se n'é andato,
non potrò più ascoltare
i suoi passi stanchi
salire per le scale. Ah!
Vecchio Dolore
vieni a farmio compagnia,
sussurrandomi all'orecchio
quando dico le preghiere. Ah!
Non è il lavoro che mi preoccupa.
Io e il lavoro siamo passeggieri,
che viaggiano insieme
versoo la Terra Promessa.
Ma anche Nonno Dolore
sta marciando sempre con me
e mi dice che ora sono vecchia
perché ho perduto il mio uomo.
Nonno Dooore stando presso il fuoco
mi giace accanto tutta la notte.
E mi dice la stessa cosa mattina,
mezzogiono e sera:
che sono sola
ora che il mio uomo è morto. Ah!
