Italian text

Or, se mi mostra la mia carta il vero,
non e lontano a discoprirsi il porto;
si che nel lito i voti scioglier spero
a chi nel mar per tanta via m'ha scorto;
ove, o di non tornar col legno intero,
o d'errar sempre, ebbi gia il viso smorto.
Ma mi par di veder, ma veggo certo,
veggo la terra, e veggo il lito aperto.

Sento venir per allegrezza un tuono
che fremer l'aria e rimbombar fa l'onde:
odo di squille, odo di trombe un suono
che l'alto popular grido confonde.
Or comincio a discernere chi sono
questi che empion del porto ambe le sponde.
Par che tutti s'allegrino ch'io sia
venuto a fin di cosi lunga via.

English translation

I, if my chart deceives me not, shall now
In little time behold the neighbouring shore;
So hope withal to pay my promised vow
To one, so long my guide through that wide roar
Of waters, where I feared, with troubled brow,
To scathe my bark or wander evermore.
But now, methinks — yea, now I see the land;
I see the friendly port its arms expand.

A burst of joy, like thunder to my ear,
Rumbles along the sea and rends the sky.
I chiming bells, I shrilling trumpets hear,
Confounded with the people's cheerful cry;
And now their forms, that swarm on either pier
Of the thick-crowded harbour, I descry.
All seem rejoiced my task is smoothly done,
And I so long a course have safely run.
