Ancor che per amarti io mi consumi
In ogni parte e non a me rimiri
Tu, bramata cagion di miei martiri.
Deh, volgi homai ver me gli amati lumi
Poi che vil fango ancor rimirar suole
Senza oscurar i suoi bei raggi, il Sole.

Composition:

    Set to music by Carlo Gesualdo da Venosa (c1561 - 1613), "Ancor che per amarti io mi consumi", published 1611 [ chorus ], madrigal for five voices
