Original text and translations

Italian.png Italian text

Un dubbio verno, un instabil sereno,
È vostra fama e poca nebbia il rompe,
E'l gran tempo a gran nomi è gran veneno.
Passan vostri trionfi e vostre pompe,
Passan le signorie passano i regni,
Ogni cosa mortal, Tempo interrompe.
(Petrarch: Trionfo del Tempo, 109-114)

English.png English translation

Your fame is as a doubtful spring,
an unstable serene day, and a little cloud breaks it,
and great time is great venom to great names.
Your triumphs and your pomp pass,
lordships pass, kingdoms pass,
Time interrupts each mortal thing.
