Original text and translations

Italian text A voi, mentre il mio core Con i sospiri miei, messagi suoi: «Anima mia », vi dice, «ardo d’amore, Anima mia, per voi d’amor io ardo», Deh, non tacete voi, Ma rispondete, almen col vostro sguardo: «Ardi, e mori, cor mio, Ch’ardo d’amor per te, d’amor anch’ io.»

English translation To you, while my heart together with my sighs, sends its messages: 'My dear', it says, 'I burn with love, my dear, for you I am burnt by love', ah, do not be silent, but respond at least with your eyes: 'Burn and die, my heart, for I burn with love for you, burnt by love am I.'
