Due rose fresch'e colte in paradiso
Language:
Italian
Due rose [fresche e]1 colte in paradiso
l' altr' ier, nascendo il dì primo di maggio,
bel dono e d' un amante antiquo e saggio
tra duo minor egualmente diviso,
con sì dolce parlar e con un riso
da far innamorare un uom selvaggio,
di sfavillante ed amoroso raggio
e l' un e l'altro fe' cangiare il viso.
"Non [vede un]2 simil par d' amanti il sole"
dicea ridendo e sospirando insieme;
e [stringendo ambedue]3, volgeasi a torno.
Così partia le rose e le parole,
onde 'l cor lasso ancor s' allegra e teme:
o felice eloquenzia! o lieto giorno!
