Il magnanimo Pietro che giurato
Havea tra mille lance e mille spalde
Al suo caro signor morir a lato
Poi che e’ accorse vinto da viltade
Nel gran bisogno haver di fé mancato
Il dolor, la vergogna e la pietade
Del proprio fallo e de l’altrui martiro
Di mille punte il petto gli feriro.

German.png German translation by Kammerchor Elberfeld

Als der hochherzige Petrus, der geschworen hatte,
an der Seite des teuren Herrn inmitten von tausend
Lanzen und tausend Schwertern zu sterben, gewahr wurde,
daß er, von Feigheit überwältigt, in großer Bedrängnis
im Glauben gefehlt hatte, verwundeten ihm Schmerz,
Scham und Bekümmernis über sein eigenes Versagen und
die Marter des anderen mit tausend Stichen die Brust.
