Madonna mia, io son un poverello,
cerco patron et chiamo mi martino
provam’ un poco
per ogni loco
come ti servo da fer’ et martino
et chiamo mi martino.

Dulce commertium caste loquentum
Apagesis impura loqui solens
pudicore iocantes ore
exhilaremur sic hodie,
ne cras erubescamus ingenua sit lingua
dulces inter sodales

Dulce commertium parce bibentum
Apagesis absque siti compotans
compressiore, libantes ore
sic delectemur iam poculis,
ne cras abominemus sint sobria bonorum
symposia virorum

Dulce commertium sacra canentum
Apagesis prophana cantu dignans
sacratione sonantes ore
sic iubilemus hoc tempore,
ne de inde lugeamus Deo dicata soli
sit lingua Christiani

Dulce commertium sese noscentum
Apagesis sublimiora iactans
modestione loquentes ore
sic gloriemur coram bonis
malis ne comparemur non arrogavi modestas
decet loquela Musas
Contrafact from Cantiones suavissimae (Leonhard Schröter)
