Орландо ди Лассо - Nessun visse giamai piu di me lieto - ноты, текст песни (слова), перевод

Italian text

  Nessun visse giamai piu di me lieto;
 Nessun vive piu tristo e giorni e notti:
 E doppiando'l dolor, doppia lo stile,
 Che trahe del cor si lagrimose rime.
 Vissi di speme; hor vivo pur di pianto,
 Ne contra morte spero altro che morte.  
   
 English translation

  No one has ever led a happier life than I once did:
 no one's days and nights are more sorrowful than mine.
 As the pain is redoubled, so doubled is the dagger
 that draws from my heart such tearful verse.
 I used to live inspired by hope; yet now my life is filled with lamenting:
 no remedy for death there is but death itself.
