With rivals and critics, who sought to contrive.
But through it all, his spirit held strong,
In music's embrace, he forever belonged.

So let us raise a toast, to Giacomo Antonio Perti,
Whose music still echoes, in halls of eternity.
In melodies sweet, his legacy lives on,
A testament to his talent, forever drawn.
