by Michelangelo Buonarroti (1475 - 1564)
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Com'arò dunche ardire Senza vo' ma', mio ben, tenermi 'n vita, S'io non posso al partir chiedervi aita? Que' singulti, e que' pianti, e que' sospiri Che 'l miser core voi accompagnorno, Madonna, duramente dimostrorno La mia propinqua morte e' miei martiri. Ma se ver è che per assenzia mai Mia fedel servitù vadia in oblio, Il cor lasso con voi, che non è mio.
