E pur partir conviemmi by Fulvio Novelli — Lyrics
E pur patir con viemmi Alma Regina.
Ecco l'hora vicinaa,
Dal tuo sacro conspetto,
E del tuo caro Figlio, et benedetto.
Parto da Voi, e sò con quanta pena,
Più non hò pélso, ò lena:
Che se'l Ciel nó m'aita,
Partesi'l cor da me, parte la vita.
Lasso che fia di me, s'in vita moro,
O sacro, alto Thesoro

About E pur partir conviemmi
This sacred laude expresses the profound sorrow of parting from the Virgin Mary and her son, Jesus. The text paints a poignant scene of a soul in anguish, facing imminent separation and fearing a spiritual death. The speaker laments their fading strength and the pain of leaving such sacred company, questioning their fate and their future in a world fraught with temptation. This setting for SAB voices captures the deep personal devotion and the yearning for spiritual solace amidst profound grief and earthly struggle. It is a heartfelt meditation on loss, faith, and the ultimate desire for a peaceful end to suffering.
