Com' havra vit' amor la vita mia,
Se chi mi puo dar vita,

Com' havra fin la pena mia infinita,

About Com' havra vit' amor
Domenico Micheli's Com' havra vit' amor is a secular Italian madrigal for SATTB voices. The text expresses a lover's lament, questioning how love can sustain his life when the very person who gives him life also desires his death. He longs for his infinite suffering to end, but his beloved only leads him to greater anguish. Despite this pain, his desire for her remains, an unquenchable flame that cannot die.
