Italian text
Come lume di notte in alcun porto
Vide mai d’alto mar nave ne legno
Se non gliel tolse o tempestat’ o scogli
Così di su de la gonfiate vela
Vid’io l’insegne de quell’ altra vita.
Et alhor sospirai vers’il mio fine.
German translation
So wie bei Nacht den Leuchtturm in dem Hafen
auf hohem Meer ein Schiff erblickt, ein Nachen,
wenn Wetter es nicht wehren oder Klippen:
So sah ich über dem geschwellten Segel
die Hoffnungssterne zu dem bessern Leben,
und seufzte damals ich nach meinem Ende.
