The Kantilena Procession

By Pietru Caxaro (± 1400 – 1485)
The recital of misfortune, O my neighbours, come I’ll tell you
Such as has not been found in the past, nor in your lifetime.
A heart ungoverned, kingless, and lordless
Has thrown me into a deep well with steps that stop short;
Where, desiring to drown, I descend by the steps of my downfall;
Rising and falling always in the stormy sea.
My house has fallen! It has pushed the foundations.
The workmen did not trespass, the rock gave way.
Where I had hoped to find rock, I found loose clay.
The house I had long been building has collapsed.
And that’s how my house fell! And build it up again!
Change the place that harms it.
He who changes the place changes his fortune;
For each land makes a difference with every span;
There is white land and black and red land;
More than this, there is that from which you’d better leave.
