Vida
San Francisco de Asís, nacido como Giovanni di Pietro di Bernardone en 1181, fundó la Orden Franciscana. Tras una juventud de riqueza, experimentó una profunda conversión, abrazando la pobreza radical y la devoción a Cristo.
Canticle of the Sun (Canticum Fratris Solis)
Altíssimu, onnipotente, bon Signore,
Most High, all-powerful, good Lord,
tue so le laude, la glória e l'honore et onne benedictióne.
Yours are the praises, the glory, and the honor, and all blessing.
Ad te solo, Altíssimo, se konfáno
To You alone, Most High, do they belong,
et nullu homo ène dignu te mentováre.
and no human is worthy to mention Your name.
Laudáto sii, mi Signore, cum tucte le tue creatúre,
Praised be You, my Lord, with all Your creatures,
spetialménte messor lo frate Sole,
especially Sir Brother Sun,
lo quale è iorno, et allúmini noi per lui.
Who is the day and through whom You give us light.
Et ellu è bellu e radiánte cum grande splendóre,
And he is beautiful and radiant with great splendor;
de te, Altíssimo, porta significatióne.
and bears a likeness of You, Most High One.
— Saint Francis of Assisi, c. 1224
