Original text and translations

Italian text Alme d’Amor rubelle che con leggiadri suoni e dolci accenti frenar potete i venti, e invaghite di voi l’ardenti stelle: beato chi v’ascolta e chi vi mira! Beato chi per voi langue e sospira.

English translation Souls who rebel against Love, who with charming songs and sweet words can stop the winds from blowing and make the bright stars fall in love with you: blessed he who hears you and gazes upon you! Blessed he who for you languishes and sighs. Translation by Campelli
