Original text and translations

Italian text Quando sorge l’aurora, ridon' l’erbette e i fiori e i pargoletti amori van con le Ninfe intorno al mio bel sole adorno, scherzando ad ora ad ora, onde la terra e’l ciel se n’innamora.

English translation When the dawn rises, the grasses and the flowers smile and the amorous cherubs go with the nymphs around my lovely adorned sun, frolicking all the while, where the earth and the heavens fall in love. Translation by Allen Garvin
