Quel fronte signorille in paradiso
Scorge l'anima mia,
Mentre che in suo suo balia
Stretto mi tiene mirando il suo bel viso.

I ochi trapassa tuti dei altri el viso
Con si dolce armonia
Che i cor nostri s'en via
Pian pian in suso vano in paradiso.

Quel fronte signorille in paradiso…

English.png English translation

That noble brow
Leads my soul to paradise
Whilst keeping me in close subjection
Admiring her lovely face.

Her eyes outshine those in all other faces
With such sweet harmony
That our hearts leave us
And slowly slowly rise to heaven.

That noble brow…
