Con un dolente by André Vierendeels — Lyrics
Con un dolent' aime,
Signor, d'avanti a te,
sgogo l'acerbo pianto,
per ritrovar pietà
dal la tua gran bontà
nel regno Santo.
Piansi la nott'e'l di,
c'ho peccato e por chi,
pompe d'Inferno rio,
non piu pecar vorro,
che l'alma mia daro.

About Con un dolente
This devotional motet for SAT voices sets a heartfelt Italian text of penitence and plea for mercy. The composer André Vierendeels crafts a moving musical setting for words that express deep sorrow for sin, a turning away from temptation, and a fervent appeal to divine compassion. The choir will find ample opportunity to convey the profound emotions of the text, from the initial lament to the final declaration of pure faith. Its sacred nature and evocative Italian lyrics make it suitable for moments of reflection and spiritual contemplation within a service or concert setting.
