Recitar! Mentre preso dal delirio!
Non so pi? quel che dico
e quel che faccio!
Eppur ? d’uopo sforzati!
Bah! Sei tu forse un uom?
Tu sei Pagliaccio!
Vesti la giubba
Ela faccia infarina.
La gente paga e rider vuole qua.
E se Arlecchin t’invola Colombina,
ridi, Pagliaccio, e ognun applaudir?!
Tramuta in lazzi
lo spasmo ed il pianto;
in una smorfia il singhiozzo
e’l dolor! Ah!
Ridi, Pagliaccio,
sul tuo amore infranto.
Ridi del duol che t’avvelena il cor.
– Leoncavallo’s “I Pagliacci”
Recitar! – Vesti la giubba
