Chi vuol veder Amore
E sue reti, saette
ed arco e foco,
E Venere, le gratie,
il riso e il gioco,
La dolce bocca e il seno,
Di Filli mia sol miri
E viva poi, se può,
senza sospiri.

German.png German translation

Wer Amor sehen will
und seine Netze, Pfeile
und Bogen und Feuer,
und Venus, die Grazien,
das Lachen und der Spaß,
der möge nur anschauen den süßen Mund
und den Busen meiner Phyllis,
und dann weiterleben, wenn er kann,
ohne Seufzen.

Translation by Gerhard Weydt

Who wants to see Amor
and his nets, arrows
and bow and fire,
and Venus, the Graces,
laughter and play,
shall only look at the sweet mouth
and the bosom of my Phyllis,
and afterwards live, if he can,
without sighing.

Translation by Gerhard Weydt
