Dio sa quanto me diglio by Antonio Capreoli — Lyrics
Dio sa quanto me doglio
Star da te donna lontano
El star longi aime me occide
e in doi parte me diparte
che dal corpo mio devide
el cor che in altra parte
e cossi de parte in parte
col pensier donna te sequo
e in memoria me relequo

About Dio sa quanto me diglio
Antonio Capreoli's Dio sa quanto me diglio is a secular Italian madrigal for SATB voices. Its text expresses the profound sorrow and longing of a lover separated from his beloved. He describes his pain as nearly killing him, dividing his heart from his body, and how his thoughts constantly follow her. The words paint a vivid picture of his anguish, as he searches for her in every place they once shared, sighing and recalling their intimate moments. He feels lost and driven by his memories, like a blind and insane lover, trapped by the bitterness of his separation.
