Original text and translations

Italian text Affrettiamoci tutti di fruire I contenti d'Amore Poi che 'l tempo nemico abbrevia l'hore Viviam' amiamo sempre cantiamo Cose di gioia e di gaudio e di riso Cose d'Amor' e d'un sereno viso.

English translation Let us all make haste to enjoy the pleasures of love, as the enemy, time, shortens the hours: let us live, let us love, let us ever sing joyful things of pleasure and laughter, songs of love, with our faces radiant. Translation by Mick Swithinbank
