Che la speranza dee venir di sopra.
Hope must come from above.
Come da l’onde, e dal
furor de venti.
In mezzo’l
mare combattuto legno:
Tal percossa da pene
e da tormenti
E nostra vita senza un sol ritegno;
Se bei lumi di sopra
almi e lucenti
(Nel pelago mortal solo sostegno)
Non la reggono
ogn’hor, si, che dal torto
Suo camin speri di ridursi in porto.
