Ancor che col partire
io mi senta morire,
partir vorrei ogn'hor, ogni momento:
tant'e il piacer ch'io sento
de la vita ch'acquisto nel ritorno:
et cosi mill'e mille volt'il giorno
partir da voi vorrei:
tanto son dolci gli ritorni miei.
Although when I leave you
it is as if I were dying,
I would wish to leave you every hour, every moment,
I am so very happy
when life comes back to me when I return:
and so I wish I could leave you
many thousand times a day
because my heart leaps with joy when I return.

text: THIS MARRIAGE
May these vows and this marriage be blessed.
May it be sweet milk,
this marriage, like wine and halvah.
May this marriage offer fruit and shade
like the date palm.
May this marriage be full of laughter,
our every day a day in paradise.
May this marriage be a sign of compassion,
a seal of happiness here and hereafter.
May this marriage have a fair face and a good name,
an omen as welcomes the moon in a clear blue sky.
I am out of words to describe
how spirit mingles in this marriage.
Jalal al-Din Rumi, 1207-1273 less
