Original text:
In un scornu di lu mondu,
Ci h un lucucciu tenerezza
Ind'u mio core, maestosu,
Imbalsama di purezza
Ghjuvellu di maraviglie,
n ne circate sumiglie,
n truverete la para ;
Ghj nica, sola cara.
Corsica.
Face sempre tant'inviglia
Ssu scogliu ciottu in mare,
Tesoru ch spampilla
Sacru cume un altare.
Calma, dolce cum'agnella,
Generosa accugliente,
Si rivolta si ribella
S'omu disprezza a so ghjente.
