This is great! I don't know any Italian, but that won't stop me from hazarding a guess that the word cocco perhaps may be derived from coco, which in turn reminded me of a translation given in Hofstadter's Le Ton Beau de Marot (p 52b). Here it is:
Mia coco,
Io ti do
Il buondi;
Stare qui
Ti fa mal.
L’ospedal
Lascerai:
Aprirai
II porton.
Con passion
Fuggirai
Dai tuoi guai:
Stando a me,
Cosi e.
Non poltrir!
E perir
L'indugiar!
Va’a mangiar
Un boccon
Di bonbon.
Se ristai,
Smagrirai
Di pallor
E languor.
O Gesu,
Pensa Tu
Al suo pro.
Mia coco!
