{{text|Italian|Quando amor i begli occhi a terra inchina | |||
e i vaghi spirti in un sospiro accoglie, | |||
con le sue mani, e poi in voce gli scioglie | |||
chiara soave, angelica divina; | |||
Sento far del mio cor dolce rapina, | |||
e sì dentro cangiar pensieri e voglie, | |||
ch'i' dico: Or sien di me l'ultime spoglie | |||
se'l ciel sì larga morte mi destina. | |||
Ma 'l suon che di dolcezza i sensi lega | |||
col gran desir d'udendo esser beata | |||
l'anima al dipartir presta raffrena; | |||
Così mi vivo, e così avolge e spiega | |||
lo stame della vita che m'è data, | |||
questa sola fra noi del ciel sirena.}} | |||

{{translation|English|When Love inclines her lovely eyes to earth | |||
and with his hand gathers her wandering breath | |||
in a sigh, then looses it in a voice, | |||
clear, gentle, angelic and divine, | |||
I feel my heart sweetly stolen away, | |||
and my thoughts and wishes changed within, | |||
so that I say: 'These are the last spoils of me | |||
if heaven intends me for so happy a death.' | |||
But that sound that binds the senses with its sweetness | |||
restrains the spirit from swiftly departing, | |||
through a great desire to hear it, and be blessed. | |||
So I live, and so she winds, unwinds | |||
the thread of life that was granted me, | |||
that sole Siren from heaven who's among us. | |||
