Original text and translations

Italian text Lunge da voi mia vita: Com'è che vivo i' sia S'in questa dipartita Da voi resta con voi l'anima mia. Me da voi l'altrui voglia Voi da me discompagna la mia sorte Ma di tal nod'Amore Strinse il vostro e il mio core Che non fia che'l rallenti o che'l discioglia Giamai tempo ne morte.

English translation Far from you, my life: How is it I live if with this departure from you, my soul remains with you. Me from you, someone else's desire [separates us], and you from me, my fate sunders, but such a bond of Love ties together your heart and mine that never will it be reduced or unbound, by neither time nor death. Translation by Allen Garvin
