Il bianco e dolce cigno
cantando more, ed io
piangendo giung' al fin del viver mio.
The white and sweet swan
dies singing, and I,
weeping, reach the end of my life.
Stran' e diversa sorte,
ch'ei more sconsolato
ed io moro beato.
Strange and different fate,
that he dies disconsolate
and I die a blessed death,
Morte che nel morire
m'empie di gioia tutto e di desire.
Se nel morir, altro dolor non sento,
di mille mort' il di sarei contento.
which in dying fills me
full of joy and desire.
If in dying, were I to feel no other pain,
I would be content to die a thousand deaths a day.
