I give you my virtues
You gave me a son
I devote my life to you both
Forever I will protect
Nothing can separate us in faith or love
Keep Gianpaolo close to our gods
Teach him compassion and serenity
I will train him to stand up for integrity
Protect him with your life’s milk
Take these grapes as enticing as your passion
This wine flows like the ardour of your heart
Feel the gods tremble before your beauty
Light of day is turning crimson before my eyes
The air is heavy with a hot and heavy fragrance
Hold me tight with gods’ precious gift
We are strongest together
Winds of heaven take them to a higher place
Peace is immortal
On earth now for eternity
Thither was Pompeii

Nothing can separate us in faith or love
Keep Gianpaolo close to our gods
Teach him compassion and serenity
I will train him to stand up for integrity
Protect him with your life’s milk
Take these grapes as enticing as your passion
This wine flows like the ardour of your heart
Feel the gods tremble before your beauty
Light of day is turning crimson before my eyes
The air is heavy with a hot and heavy fragrance
Hold me tight with gods’ precious gift
We are strongest together
Winds of heaven take them to a higher place
Peace is immortal
On earth now for eternity
Thither was Pompeii
