Original text and translations

Italian text Io piango et ella il volto
Con le sue man m’asciuga,
et poi sospira, et poi sospira
Dolcemente et s'adira
Con parole ch’i sassi romper ponno,
Et dopo questo si part’ella e’l sonno.

Translation(s):
English translation I cry, and my face she
With her hands wipes,
And then she sighs, she sighs
Sweetly, and loses her temper
With words that could break stones,
And then she goes away, and with her my sleep.
