by Giovanni Battista Guarini (1538 - 1612)

Parto o non parto?
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Parto o non parto? Ahi come
resto se parte la corporea salma,
o come parto se qui resta l'alma?
E se ne l'alma è vita,
come non moro se di lei son privo?
o come moro s' a la pena i' vivo?
Ahi fiera dipartita:
come m'insegna la mia dura sorte
che 'l partir de gl'amanti è viva morte.
