    The speaker describes a young woman who lives in a house surrounded by jasmine flowers. Every evening at 9pm, she looks out her window, and the speaker's heart fills with longing while among the jasmine flowers. The moonlight is able to look upon her sleeping face through the window. The speaker has told the woman that with her beauty, she should not be alone, and he would spend his life kissing her violet eyes. He has a bridal bed prepared with rose petals, just needing a decorated blanket, which they could make from the jasmine flowers.

    'A 'NFRASCATA

    Pisano - Lama 'Mmiez' ffronne, 'mmiez' ffronne d''a 'Nfrascata, ce sta na casarella prufumata; chien''e sciure, chien''e rose avvellutate add' se ferma 'o sole p''a guard... Add' se ferma 'o sole p''a guard... E na figliola cu duje uocchie nire, s'affaccia, tutt''e ssere, a vintun'ore... E 'o core mio se fa na cammenata, tutt''e ssere, 'mmiez' ffronne d''a 'Nfrascata... Raggio 'e luna, raggio 'e luna 'nnargentato, tu comme si' felice e affurtunato: Quanno, 'a sera, 'sta fenesta s' appannata, te miette 'e faccefronte p''a guard... Te miette 'e faccefronte p''a guard... E quanno 'sta figliola s'addurmenta, tu trase a ll'intrasatto, e 'a vase 'nfronte... E po' te firme cc, tutt''a nuttata, pazzianno 'mmiez' ffronne d''a 'Nfrascata! Ll'aggio ditto, ll'aggio ditto a 'sta figliola: "Chi bella comm'a vuje nun p st sola: 'Sta vucchella tne 'addore d''e vviole e io desse tutt''a vita p''a vas... E io desse tutt''a vita p''a vas!..." E tengo pronto gi nu lietto 'e sposa, cu duje cuscine, fatte 'e fronne 'e rose... Ce manca na cuperta arricamata... e 'a facimmo cu sti ffronne d''a 'nfrascata!
