Amatemi, ben mio,
Che se d’amarmi,
dolce vita mia,
Non vi mostrate pia,
Viverò sconsolato,
Sol per amarvi,
Non essendo amato.

French.png French translation

Aimez-moi, mon bien,
Car si, de m'aimer, ma douce vie,
Vous ne vous montrez pas généreuse,
Je vivrai inconsolable,
N'aimant que vous
Sans être aimé.
