Product Description
Il bianco e dolce cigno
cantando more, ed io
piangendo giung al fin del viver mio.
Stran e diversa sorte,
chei more sconsolato
ed io moro beato.
Morte che nel morire
mempie di gioia tutto e di desire.
Se nel morir, altro dolor non sento,
di mille mort il di sarei contento.
The white and sweet swan
singing dies, and I
weeping, reach the end of my life.
Strange and different fate,
that he dies inconsolable
and I die blessed.
Death, which in dying
fills me full of joy and desire.
If in dying, I [were to] feel no other pain,
a thousand times a day I would be happy to die.
Giovanni Guidiccioni (1500 1541)
