  • Very good! I enjoyed the dynamics, although the one flaw I found was on "tuto e di desire." There wasn't enough "T" on the tuto. Otherwise, the intonation was beautiful, and all the vowels were clear and on pitch. Very good, very good.

  • nice! check out Ust Singer's version of it... they just arrived from Spain

  • lol I never read the sex part... but oh well if that's what it means

  • Renaissance... sex equated with death, or losing a piece of your soul to another. Hard to grasp, I know, but that's what the poet was implying.

  • The white and sweet swan

    dies singing, and I,

    weeping, reach the end of my life.

    Strange and different fate,

    that he dies disconsolate

    and I die a blessed death,

    which in dying fills me

    full of joy and desire.

    If in dying, were I to feel no other pain,

    I would be content to die a thousand deaths a day.

  • WTF?

  • This is a beautiful song Katrina and thank you so much for the sharing and the translation, it is very helpful to the true meaning of the song.

    Hugs, Michael

  • This is not about death the translation is: The gentle white swan Singing dies, and I while weeping, I reach the end of my life Strange and different fate, That he dies unconsoled, And I die blessed. Death that in the dying Fills me with all joy and desire If in dying no other pain I sense, A thousand deaths a day would content me.
