Italian text
O Dolce vita mia, ch' t'agio fatto
ch' me menaz' ognior ognor co toi parole
Et io me strugo come neu' al sole.
Se sai per tuo amor son quasi matto
Chatte de l'ardor mio niente te dole
Et io me strugo come neu' al sole
Mo son perduto et temgomo disfatto
Ch'mai mandat' a coglier viole
Et me me strugo come neu' al sole
Questo e piu vero ch'ne il specchio
Ch'amor nouo sempre caccia il vecchio
Et io me strugo come neu' al sole
