Original text and translations

Italian.png Italian text

Che cosa ‘l mondo mai saria più bella
d’amor pien di vaghezz’et leggiadria,
se non fusse martello e gelosia.

German.png German translation

Welche Sache in der Welt wäre je schöner
als Liebe voller Anmut und Liebreiz,
wäre da nicht die Qual und die Eifersucht.

Translation by Gerhard Weydt
English.png English translation

Would anything in the world be more beautiful
than love full of of grace and charm,
were there not torment and jealousy.

Translation by Gerhard Weydt
