Guido, I wish that you and Lapo and I
|
Could be taken by magic and placed in a boat
|
Where every rising swell
|
Would sweep us at our will across the sky
|
|
Then tempest never, or weather dire
|
Could ever make our blissful living cease
|
No, but abiding in a steady, blessed peace
|
Together in harmony
|
|
And Lady Vanna and Lagia then
|
She who looms the thirty best
|
Would join us at the enchanter's behest
|
|
And there we'd talk of love without an end
|
To make those ladies happy in the sky
|
With Lapo enchanted too, and you and I
|
