1.

Tutti venite armati
O forti miei soldati.
Fa la la
Io son l'invitt'Amore
Giusto saettatore.
Non temete punto,
Ma in bella schiera uniti,
Ma seguitate arditi.
Fa la la

2.

Sembrano forti heroi
Quei che son contra voi.
Fa la la
Ma da chi sa ferire,
Non si sapran schermire.
Non temete punto,
Ma coraggiosi e forti,
Siat' a la pugna accorti.
Fa la la

3.

Lieti hor movete il piede,
Che vostre sian le prede,
Fa la la
Hor via feriam lo sdegno
Ch'ei de la vita è indegno
Non temete punto
Eterna sia la gloria
E certa è la vittoria,
Fa la la

4.

Già morto giace in terra
Chi ci havea mosso guerra,
Fa la la
Hor gli altri suoi suguaci
Tutti assaliamo andaci
Non temete punto
Ecco ch'i non estinti
Fuggon già sparsi e vinti,
Fa la la

1.

Come all ye, armed,
My hardy soldiers!
Fa la la
I am Love indomitable,
The righteous archer.
Do not fear in the slightest,
But in a beautiful battle line united,
Keep up the fight, lusty ones!
Fa la la


2.

They seem strong heroes,
Those arrayed against you.
Fa la la
But from those who know how to wound,
They will know not how to defend.
Do not fear in the slightest,
But, bold and strong,
Be shrewd in battle!
Fa la la

3.

Take haste, happy ones,
That you may not be the prey,
Fa la la
---
---
Do not fear in the slightest!
Let the glory be eternal,
And sure is the triumph!
