Original text and translations

Italian text Liquide perle, Amor dagli occhi sparse, In premio del mio ardore, Ma, lasso, ohime! che’l core Di maggior foco m'arse; Ahi, che bastava solo A darmi morte il primo ardente duolo.

English translation Liquid pearls from Love's eyes scattered in reward for my ardor, but, alas! my heart burns from a fiercer flame; Ah, it alone suffices, that first ardent pain, to bring me death. Translation by Allen Garvin
