In atto ed in parole la ringrazio by Hippolito Sabino — Lyrics
In atto ed in parole la ringrazio
umilement' e poi domand': «Or donde

About In atto ed in parole la ringrazio
Hippolito Sabino's In atto ed in parole la ringrazio is a secular madrigal for SATTB voices, written in Italian. The music opens with a clear interplay between the voices, setting the scene for the text. The lyrics express a plea to a loved one, who is thanked both in deed and in word, and asked how they know of the singer's suffering. The singer explains that the loved one's tears and sighs, born of a reluctance to see them leave this mortal coil and attain a better life, disturb her peace. She questions why they are displeased, urging them to remember how much they professed to love her through their gestures and words.
