{{Text|Italian|
Morir non puo'l mio core,
E ucciderlo vorrei poi che vi piace,
Ma trar non si puo fuore,
Dal petto vostro ove gran tempo giace,
Et uccidendol' io come desio,
So che morreste voi morend' anch' io.}}

{{Translation|English|
My heart cannot die:
and yet, to please you, I want it to.
But it can’t be ripped from your breast
where it has lived so long,
and if I were to end it—as I want to—
I know my death would be your death too.}}
{{Translator|Nicholas Jones}}
