Original text and translations

English original text Ladie, those cherries plentie, Which grow on your lips daintie, Ere long will fade and languish, Then now, while yet they last them, O let me pull and test them.

English text Lady, those cherries plenty, Which grow on your lips dainty, Ere long will fade and languish, Then now, while yet they last them, O let me pull and test them.

Italian translation Signora, quell'abbondanza di ciliegie, Che crescono delicate sulle tue labbra, Ben presto svanirà e languirà. Quindi ora, mentre ancora durano, Oh lasciami raccoglierle e assaggiarle.
