Original text and translations

German text Herzlieb zu dir allein steht Tag und Nacht mein Sinn, dein rotes Mündelein nimmt mir all's Trauren hin. Dir hab ich mich ergeben, dein eigen will ich sein, mit dir in Freud zu leben bis an das Ende mein.

English text My darling, it's for you I'm yearning night and day. Your kisses sweet and true Take all my grief away. Could we but be united in wedlock, you and I, My heart would stay delighted Until the day I die.

Italian text Adorata, solo a te penso giorno e notte, la tua rossa boccuccia porta via ogni mia tristezza. A te mi sono dato, voglio essere tuo, vivere con te nella gioia fino alla fine dei miei giorni.
