Bernardo Tasso (1493 - 1569)
Ohimè, dov'è il mio ben?
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Available translation(s): FRE
Prima parte
Ohimè, dov'è il mio ben? Dov'è il mio core?
Chi m'asconde il mio core: e chi me 'l toglie?
Seconda parte
Dunque ha potuto sol desio d'honore
Darmi fera cagion di tante doglie?
Terza parte
Dunque ha potuto in me più che 'l mio amore
Ambitiose, e troppo lievi voglie?
Quarta parte
Ahi sciocco mondo, e cieco! ahi cruda sorte,
Che ministro mi fai de la mia morte.

pour moi être la cause cruelle de tant de douleurs ?

Ainsi, en moi plus puissants que mon amour ont été
des souhaits ambitieux et trop légers ?

Ah, monde stupide et aveugle, ah, sort cruel,
qui fait de moi l'instrument de ma mort !
