Original text and translations

Italian text Fiere silvestre che per lati campi vagando errate, e per acuti sassi, udiste mai sì dolorose rime? Ditel vi prego, udisti in alcun giorno o pur in questa over in altra valle con sì caldi sospir, sì lungo pianto?

English translation O woodland beasts that through the countryside wander freely, and among the jagged rocks, have you ever heard such mournful rhymes? Pray tell me, have you heard such on any day in this or any other valley, with such heated sighs and long weeping? Translation by Allen Garvin
