Hor ch'è lung'il mio bene,
patisco'amare pene,
torna ben mio,
deh viver senza te, come poss'io?

Ogni luogo m'attrista
senza tua dolce vista,
e se ben hora canto,
io mi consumo in pianto,

E' miracol d'Amore,
ch'io viva senza core,
ma ohimè tu non odi,
e del mio mal ti godi, crudele,
ch'al fin dirai Amante o fedele.

French.png French translation

Si mon bien s'éloigne
je souffre de peines amères
reviens-moi vite
Comment puis-je vivre sans toi ?

Chaque endroit m'attriste
privé de ta douce vue,
et si je chante bien,
Je me consume en larmes,

C'est un miracle d'amour,
que je vive sans coeur,
mais hélas tu ne détestes pas,
et tu apprécies tant ma douleur, cruelle,
qu'à la fin tu diras amant ou fidèle.
