Original text and translations

Italian text Pien d'un vago penser che me desvia da tutti gli altri, et fammi al mondo ir solo ad or ad ora a me stesso m'involo pur lei cercando che fuggir devria; et veggiola passar sí dolce et ria che l'alma trema per levarsi a volo, tal d'armati sospir' conduce stuolo questa bella d'Amor nemica, et mia. Canzoniere 169 (1st 8 lines)

English translation Full of a wandering thought that separates me from all other men, and makes me go lonely through the world, hour after hour I am tempted from myself searching for her, whom I should fly from: and I see her go by so sweet and deadly that my soul trembles to rise in flight, she leads such a troop of armed sighs with her, this beautiful enemy of Love, and of me.
