does anyone speak italian or know any italian poem/verses

Evening all,
I was wondering if anyone on here from Italy or have knowledge of italian culture? I have been asked to be one of the best men at my friend's wedding and will be doing the best man speech. The wedding will be in Italy and I want to close my speech with a verse or poem in Italian (have already googled how to do the toast part). I want something sentimental but not corny and it sound nice in both italian/english. Does anyone know of any italian verses or poems that I could use? or if someone could point me to an appropriate site?

Thanking you all in advance.

Mads

I will perform the opening prayer in the New Latin. Oh ordlay, ivethgay usway ouryay essingsblay. Amen-ay!


DO NOT consider this if the family are Italian!

Un cantante che venne da Milano
Aveva privati ​​fatti di Meccano.
Ha sangue bass-tenore, lo scopo
Svitando un dado
Poteva anche arrivare mezzosoprano

lol both! Thankfully his family are not italian.

Scudderfish... this is what google translates it back into:

A singer who came from Milan
He had made ​​private Meccano.
He has low blood-content, purpose
Unscrewing a nut
He could also get mezzo

One day ima gonna Malta to bigga hotel. Ina morning I go down to eat breakfast. I tella waitress I wanna two pissis toast. She brings me only one piss. I tella her I want two piss. She say go to the toilet. I say, you no understand, I wanna wee onna my plate. She say you better no wee onna plate, you sonna ma bitch. I don't even know the lady and she call me sonna me bitch !!

Later I go to eat at a bigga restaurant. The waitress brings me a spoon and a knife, but no fock. I tella her I wanna fock. She tell me everyone wanna fock. I tell her you no understand, I wanna fock on the table. She say you better not fock on the table, you sonna ma bitch.
