Original text and translations

Italian text Fuggirò tanto Amore, Che scemerà l'ardore, Le fiamm' e le catene, Che tengono quest'alma in tante pene. Fuggirò tanto, tanto, Che cesserà il mio pianto, Il nodo, l’arco, e ’l strale, Che tien quest’alma in doglia aspra e mortale. Fuggirò il forte laccio, Et uscirò d’impaccio, Né di fuggir mi pento, E scemar quest’ardor che nel cor sento. Fuggirò dunque Amore, Sciolto dal fiero ardore, E dirò nel fuggire: "Donna tu sei cagion del mio martire"

English translation I will escape from so much Love, That the passion will diminish, The flames and the chains, That hold this soul in so much pain. I will escape so much, That my weeping will cease, The knot, the bow, the arrow, That keeps this soul in sore and deadly pain. I will escape the strong lace, And I will set me free, Not my escape I repent, Nor diminishing the passion I feel in my heart. I will escape therefore my Love, Free from the fierce passion, And I will say by escaping: "Woman, you are the cause of my martyrdom"
