by Michelangelo Buonarroti (1475 - 1564)

Non fur men lieti che turbati e tristi
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
 Non fur men lieti che turbati e tristi
che tu patissi, e non già lor, la morte,
gli spirti eletti, onde le chiuse porte
del ciel, di terra a l’uom col sangue apristi.

  Lieti, poiché, creato, il redemisti
dal primo error di suo misera sorte;
tristi, a sentir c’a la pena aspra e forte,
servo de’ servi in croce divenisti.

  Onde e chi fusti, il ciel ne diè tal segno
che scurò gli occhi suoi, la terra aperse,
tremorno i monti e torbide fur l’acque.

  Tolse i gran Padri al tenebroso regno,
gli angeli brutti in più doglia sommerse;
godé sol l’uom, c’al battesmo rinacque.
