The iPod Quiz

I'm a little lacking for anything exciting to say, so I'm going to post this iPod survey that I gacked from Melissa's LiveJournal. Of course the responses are mine; I didn't need to gack the answers. Hehe...

7). Words translated into English:

This song of mine
Hymn of love
I sing to you now
with my pain
so strong, so great
it stabs my heart.

But the morning is clear
among the fields the scent of wine
I dreamt of you and now
I see you there
Ah, what memories
fresco of hills
I cry -- what madness
it was to leave and go

Blah blah blah. It sounds better in Italian.
