Canzone CLXIV
Language:
Italian
Or che'l ciel e la terra e'l vento tace,
e le fere e gli augelli il sonno affrena,
notte il carro stellato in giro mena
e nel suo letto il mar senz'onda giace;
vegghio, penso, ardo, piango; e chi mi sface
sempre m'è inanzi per mia dolce pena:
guerra è'l mio stato, d'ira et di duol piena;
et sol di lei pensando ò qualche pace.
Così sol d'una chiara fonte viva
move'l dolce e l'amaro ond'io mi pasco;
una man sola mi risana e punge.
Et perché'l mio martir non giunga a riva,
mille volte il dí moro e mille nasco;
tanto da la salute mia son lunge.
