Original text and translations

Italian text Se v'ho donato il core, e così vuol Amore, perché dar non dovete il vostro a me, che così car tenete? Caro fu pur il mio a me quando in me stesso ancor l'ebb'io.

English translation If I gave you my heart, as it so wishes, Love, why must you not give yours to me, for you hold it so dear? Mine was also dear to me when I still held it within myself. Translation by Allen Garvin
