Original text and translations

Italian text Occhi lucenti e belli Com'esser può ch'in un medesmo istante Nascan da voi sì nove forme, e tante? Lieti, vaghi, superbi, humili, altieri Vi mostrate in un punto, onde di speme E di timor m'empiete, E tanti effetti dolci, acerbi e fieri Nel cor arso per voi vengono insieme Ad ogn'hor che volete. Hor, poi che voi mia vita e morte sete. Occhi felici, occhi beati e cari, Siate sempre sereni, allegri e chiari.

English translation Eyes bright and beautiful How can it be that, in the selfsame moment, Rising from you are such new forms, and so many of them? Happy, vague, proud, humble, haughty There shown, in a single moment, waves of hope And of fear break over me, And many effects, sweet, bitter and proud Burned in my heart because of you, come together, At any time you choose. Now therefore, you are my life and death. Happy eyes, blessed and loved eyes, Always be calm, cheerful and bright.
