Designio

Why is our love judged by man?
If it is God who inspires this emotion,
And it is He, who has kindled the passions
That drags our life in its turmoil.
 
And it is He, by the mystery of a design
Stronger than human temptation,
Who, perhaps, completing our destiny
Who, being able to avoid it, did not avoid it.
 
We shall see who is who
Who, face to face,
Dares to be the judge
Of our love.
We shall see at once
On what scales,
Are weighed those who today
Speak of the two of us.
 
Let the one point out to us
Who is blameless,
Or the one who never knew
What love is.
Let him condemn us
Who in condemning us
Confesses that he thinks himself
Better than God.
