Amor e me fugendo ov'i' vedea tal prun che pi· di le' mie cor pungea. TranslationAs a wild quarry hides among the busheshearing the hunter's frightful hue and cry when he is near its den. so the loving desire which rules my mind heightened my senses all at once, whereby I sensed a woman amongst deep green thorns. She was fleeing from both myself and Love: this thorn wounded my heart more than she did. Text revision and translation © Giovanni Carsaniga |
