Oh, Signore Dante Alighieri, thou art truly a genius divine
Whose words have stood the test of time
Thou who saw the heavens above and the depths below
And painted the world’s landscape in vivid hue
In thy “Divine Comedy,” thou hast led us on a journey sublime
From Hell to Purgatory, through to Paradise nine
Through thy characters, both good and evil, we learn life’s greatest truths
The power of love, the need for repentance, the importance of virtues
Oh, Signore Boccaccio, with thy “Decameron” so full of wit
Thou hast given us a glimpse into life’s bittersweet pit
With tales of lust and betrayal, thou dost make us laugh and cry
And in thy words, we find comfort even when the world seems to fly by
In thy characters, both good and evil, we learn life’s greatest lessons
The power of friendship, the value of loyalty, the importance of confessions
Oh, Signore Petrarch, with thy “Canzoniere” so full of love
Thou hast given us a guide to follow when the world is tough
With thy sonnets and madrigals, we find comfort in thy words
And in thy heart, we see the depths that true passion forwards
In thy characters, both good and evil, we learn life’s greatest virtues
The power of sacrifice, the importance of forgiveness, the need to cherish
Oh, Signore Machiavelli, with thy “Principe” so full of wisdom
Thou hast given us a guide to follow even in times of grimness
With thy lessons on governance and leadership, we find truths that last
And in thy words, we see the beauty of human nature, both good and fast
In thy characters, both good and evil, we learn life’s greatest mysteries
The power of ambition, the importance of integrity, the need for sincerity
Oh, Signore Galilei, with thy discoveries so full of light
Thou hast given us a world to understand in ways that seem too bright
With thy observations and experiments, we see truths that were once hidden
And in thy words, we find beauty even amidst the chaos and frenzied
In all thy works, Signori, thou has left an indelible mark on our hearts
May we always cherish thy wisdom and guidance, both near and afar
We owe thee a debt of gratitude for the treasures that thou hast bestowed
And may your legacy live on forevermore, for the world to behold.
