Original text and translations
Text (or link to a text page) needs to be added. Se vittorie sì belle han le guerre d'amore, fatti guerrier mio core. E non temer degli amorosi strali le ferite mortali. Pugna, sappi ch'è gloria il morir per desio de la vittoria. If love’s wars have such beautiful victories, become a warrior, my heart, and do not fear the mortal wounds made by the arrows of love. Fight in the knowledge that it is glorious to die of desire for victory.
