The Arno is a river in the Tuscany region of Italy. It is the most important river of central Italy after the Tiber.
The river originates on Mount Falterona in the Casentino area of the Apennines, and initially takes a southward curve. The river turns to the west near Arezzo passing through Florence, Empoli and Pisa, flowing into the Tyrrhenian Sea at Marina di Pisa.
With a length of 241 kilometres (150 mi), it is the largest river in the region. It has many tributaries: Sieve at 60 kilometres (37 mi) long, Bisenzio at 49 kilometres (30 mi), and the Era, Elsa, Pesa, and Pescia. The drainage basin amounts to more than 8,200 square kilometres (3,200 sq mi) and drains the waters of the following subbasins:
Arno Atoll (Marshallese: Arņo, [ɑ̯ɑɳˠːʌ͡ɔɔ̯]) is a coral atoll of 133 islands in the Pacific Ocean, and forms a legislative district of the Ratak Chain of the Marshall Islands. Its total land area is only 5 square miles (13 km2). Unlike most other atolls, Arno encloses three different lagoons, a large central one, and two smaller ones in the north and east. Its main lagoon encloses an area of 130.77 square miles (338.7 km2). At a distance of only 20 kilometres (12 mi), it is the closest atoll to the Marshall Islands capital, Majuro Atoll, and can be seen looking east from Majuro on a clear day at low tide.
The population of Arno Atoll was 2,069 at the 1999 census. The most populous islets are Ajeltokrok, Kobjeltak, Rearlaplap, Langor and Tutu. The largest village is Ine, Arno.
People of Arno are well known for their productivity in making copra (the dried out meat of coconuts, from which coconut oil is extracted). Arno women are renowned for their production of the Kili Bag, a popular handwoven handbag/purse, named after another island in the Marshall Islands (to which the people of Bikini were eventually relocated as a result of the US nuclear tests that were conducted on their home atoll). Arno supposedly had a traditional "love school".
The Arno is a river in the Tuscany region of Italy.

Betrayed by fate
We emerge with burning eyes
And empty hands
It is too late
We cannot save
All we held so close
It has slipped through our hands
Desperate and lost
We fall to our knees
Struck by the loss
Of warmth and precious dreams
Your world is like mine
I find solace in your eyes’ caress
Drown my tears in wine
You bring beauty to my emptiness
Here I find you
You kill the pain in me
Hide my heart inside you
Here you set me free
Our worlds collide
We're pulled into this loneliness
Tears blur my sight
I long for your tenderness
Here I find you
You kill the pain in me
Hide my heart inside you
Here you set me free
Our hearts lie bare
We were beaten
And left alone
Caught in the despair
Of not knowing how to go on
When the love for life is gone
It is too late
We cannot save
All we held so close
It has slipped through our hands
Desperate and lost
We fall to our knees
Struck by the loss
Of warmth and precious dreams
Here I find you
You kill the pain in me
I hide my heart inside you
Here you set me free
Here I find you
Hold on to me
Leave the pain behind you
