Original text and translations

Italian text

Madonna io non so far sto gius' e suso,
  pregar ve voglio che me resolite
     se non volite quello che vogl' io
     ti lass' in pace adio, adio.

Io so ch'me tenite prosontuoso
   Ma guarda ch'po peggio non diciti
     se non volite ...

De far lo spantecate non so uso
   Ma saper voglio che pensier tenite
      se non volite ...

Resolvime madonna da sto tedio
   Chio cerch' eraggio per altro remedio
      si non volite ...
