Alme luci beate
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Alme luci beate Che dolcemente ardeste E dolce distruggeste L'incenerito core, Chi di bei lampi or farà lieto Amore? Io vi lasso mie scorte, Io mi parto bei numi, Io vò lungi miei numi, E non ho spem' ohimè che mi conforte. Alme luci beate, Se per si lunga etate Amando e rimirando Voi foste il mio gioire, Or per si lunga etate Amando e rimembrando Sarete il mio martire.
