"Popular song in form of ''frottola'' at the Sicilian court of Alphonsus V of Aragon. It is a parody of the moral lauda by the Florentine poet Feo Belcari (1410 - 1484) ''Haggio visto il cieco mondo'' («I have seen the blind world»), sung on the same tune. It survives in some manuscripts, with a few differences in the text and the melody. Probably, the lyrics have been transcribed by not Sicilian speakers. The song wordplay is based on the ambiguity between the word ''Cicilia'' (vernacular spelling for ''Sicilia'' until 16th century) and the name ''Cecilia'', meant at the same time as saint Cecilia and the poet's beloved. Johannes_Cornago#Life composed a beautiful Request:Missa 'Ayo visto' (Johannes Cornago) on this tune, which is the only source of the melody. This has been partially reconstructed form by Rebecca Gerber (''Cornago Complete Works'', 1984) and in a complete shape by Allan W. Atlas (''“Aggio visto lo mappamondo”: A New Reconstruction,'' in ''Studies in Musical Sources and Style'', 1990)."

Aggiu vistu lu mappamundu E la carta di navigari, Ma Cicilia mi pari La chiù bella di quistu mundu. Tri Cicilie son, nun chiui, Tutti tri son curunati: Re Alfonso 'n tien li dui, ''Citrapharum et Ultrapharum.'' La terç'ha 'n lu calendari, Nun zi parla di la quarta, Chi nun zi truva scritta in carta: È vinuta di l'autru mundu. Vidi Corziga e Sardigna E la isula di Medea, Nun sia nullu chi m'inzigna Cipra, Candia e la Morea. Ai' circatu cun la gallea La nov'isula di Castella, Ma Cicilia è tantu bella Chi pinzandu mi cunfundu. Aggiu vistu lu mappamundu E la carta di navigari, Ma Cicilia mi pari La chiù bella di quistu mundu.
