Original text and translations

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

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 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
