Italian text

Io cercho pur la insupportabil doglia
  Col spesso lamentar far grave manco

  E per pigliar una obstinata voglia
  Gia di chiamar merce son rocho e stanco

  Ne trovo anchor chi ascoltar mi voglia
  E veggiomi la morte sempre acanto

  E alhor mia pena e piu crudel e dura
  Quando el somno af altrui gliaffanni fura
