"A Diosa", better known as "No potho reposare" (IPA: [nɔ ˈpɔθɔ rɛpɔˈzaɾɛ, - ˈpɔtɔ -]; transl.
"I can't rest"), is a 1920 song composed by Giuseppe Rachel [it] in the tempo of English waltz[1] on Nuorese-language lyrics from a homonymous 1915 poem by Salvatore Sini [it; sc].
[2] Since 1921, "A Diosa" was part of the repertoire of the Philharmonic Body of Nuoro, directed by Rachel himself.
In 1936, the tenor Maurizio Carta recorded three verses of the song in a 78 rpm for Pathé Records.
In 1957, on the initiative of the musician and musicologist Gavino Gabriel, a version of the Coro di Nuoro was recorded in Turin.
