by Giacomo Francesco Bussani (flourished 1673-1680)
Mi fa guerra Marte, e amore
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Mi fa guerra Marte, e amore. L'un de' timpani al fragore vuol, che afferri scudo aurato. L'altro poi d'un ciglio armato mi combatte questo core. Mi fan guerra Marte, e amore. L'un di tromba al rio clangore chiama in campo questo petto. L'altro poi mi sfida al letto, dove all'armi dà il mio core. Mi fan guerra Marte, e amore.
