Original text and translations
Italian text
- Io mi son giovanetta e volontieri
- M'allegro e canto en la stagion novella,
- Merzé d'amore e de' dolci pensieri.
- Io vo pe' verdi prati riguardando
- I bianchi fiori, e' gialli,
- Le rose in su le spine, ei bianchi gigli,
- E tutti quanti gli vo somigliando
- Al viso di colui ch'amandomi,
- ch'amandomi mi presa terrà sempre.
English translation
- I am a young girl, and I like
- To be merry and sing in the new season (spring),
- Thanks love and sweet toughts.
- I go through the green meadows, looking
- At the flowers, white and yellow,
- At the roses over the thorns, at the white lilies,
- And more and more they look to me like
- The face of whom, loving me,
- Loving me will catch me and hold me forever.
