Italian text
Ancidetemi pur gravi(*) martiri
Che'l viver mi sia noia
Che'l morir mi fia gioia
Ma lassate ir gli estremi miei sospiri
A trovar quella ch'è cagion ch'io muoia
E dir a l'empia fera
Ch'onor non gli è che per amarla io pera.
(*)First edition of 1539 has gravi, 1581 edition has grievi
English translation
Kill me then, o grievous tortures,
For my life is so wretched
That death will be a joy for me.
But let my last sighs fly free
To find her who is the cause of my death;
Let them say to the wretched beast
That there is no honour in my death for her.
