Original text and translations

Italian text

Ombra mai fù di vegetabile
Cara et amabile, soave più.

See also the settings by Handel and Bononcini.

Versailles version

Cavalli's opera was presented with ballets by Lully and a bass in the title role, with an expanded 1st scene:

Italian text

Rimanti amica pianta
di pretiosi doni ornata,
e carca se tanto a me concede amica Parca presto, presto ti rivedrò
rimanti, rimanti, e vanta ne sia poca tua fama
che Xerse Imperrator t'adora, e t'ama.

Ombra mai fù
di Vegitabile
cara, et amabile
soave più.

bei Smeraldi crescenti
frondi tenere, e belle
di turbini, e procelle
importuni tormenti
non v'affliggano mai la dolce pace
ne giung' a profanarvi Austro rapace.
Ombra…
