Original text and translations

Italian text

Pel continuo timor che la mia spene,
Alcun mi levi piu di me potente,
Pascomi sol di pianto e vivo in pene,
Gridand'anco sovente,
Non mi toglia il ben mio,
Chi non arde d'amor come fac' io,
E le gratie che furn'al mondo sole,
Ahime non fia chi le mi rubb'o invole.
