Amor che t'ho fatt'io by Cipriano de Rore — Lyrics
Amor che t'ho fatt'io
Et a mia diva insieme
Che contr'ogni mia speme
Son'a torto da voi post'in oblio
Ella è ingrata
Tu sei crudele
Et non per quest'il servir mio

About Amor che t'ho fatt'io
Cipriano de Rore was a leading composer of madrigals in the mid-16th century, pushing the boundaries of the genre with his expressive settings of poetry. Amor che t'ho fatt'io is a five-voice setting (SATTB) for mixed voices, sung in its original Italian. The text laments a perceived betrayal by Love and a lady, feeling forgotten despite unwavering devotion. The poet questions why he has been treated so unjustly, yet resolves that his service will not be without reward. Ultimately, he finds solace and greater fortune through other influences, a happiness that time nor death can diminish.
