Original text and translations

Italian text

Feritevi ferite,
Viperette mordaci,
Dolci guerriere ardite
Del Diletto, e d'Amor, bocche sagaci.
Saettatevi pur, vibrate ardenti
L'armi vostre pungenti,
Ma le morti sien vite,
Ma la guerre sien paci,
Sien saette le lingue, e piaghe i baci.

Giambattista Marino
La Lira, Seconda parte, Madrigali 27, p.31
