Anchor che co'l partire
io mi senta morire,
partir vorrei ogn' hor, ogni momento,
tant'il piacer ch'io sento,
de la vita ch'acquisto nel ritorno
et cosi mill'e mill'e volt' il giorno,
partir da voi, da voi vorrei,
tanto son dolci gli ritorni miei.

English.png English translation by Mick Swithinbank

Although when I part from you
it is a kind of dying,
I would be glad to leave you every hour, every moment,
so great is my joy
as life comes flooding back to me on my return:
and so a thousand times a day
I would that I could part from you:
for so my heart leaps when we are reunited.
