The Caro mio ben

Almost 2 inches long. I bought these beads in Rome.  Caro mio ben is an Italian art song anyone who has had to take voice lessons ever in the history of ever has had to sing.

C'mon sing it with me

Caro mio ben Credimi almen Senza di te Languisce il cor

It means Jen Yates is my friend.  It doesn't, but I think of her anytime I see or hear it
