Italian.png Italian text

Se si alto pon gir mie stanche rime,
Ch'aggiungan lei, ch'è fuor d'ira'e di pianto
Et fa'il ciel hor di sue bellezze lieto,
Ben ricognoscera'l mutato stile,
Che gia forse gli piacque' anzi che morte
Chiar'a lei giorno a me fesse' atre notti.

English.png English translation

If my weary lines can fly so high as to reach her,
who is beyond the reach of anger or complaint
and whose beauty makes Heaven rejoice,
she will recognise the altered style
which might have pleased her before that time when death
bestowed on her bright day, but brought me gruelling dark nights.
Translation by Mick Swithinbank
