I HAVE PLACED MY HEART – Poetry, by Jacopo da Lentini

I HAVE PLACED MY HEART

I have placed my heart in God’s service, so that I might ascend to Heaven, to the holy place where I have heard, there’s always laughter, joy and fun: I’d not want to go without my Lady, of the clear brow, and golden hair, without her I could never be happy, separated from my Lady fair. But I do not speak with real intent of committing any sin if I should say, I’ll not see her lovely movement, her gentle look and lovely face: For I would be utterly content, to find her there, glorious to my gaze.

(Jacopo da Lentini)
