Italian text
La vita fugge et non s'arest' un hora
Et la morte vié dietr'a grá giomate,
Et le cose present e le passate
Mi dan’no guerra, et le futur' ancora
E'l rimembrar et l’aspettar m’accora,
Hor quinci, hor quindisi ch´è veritate
Se non ch'io ho di me stesso pietate,
I farei gia di questi pensier fora.
