Original text and translations

Italian text

Raggi dov’è il mio bene
non mi date più pene
ch’io me n’andrò cantando dolce aita
questi son gl’occhi che mi dan la vita.

Soli del vostro foco
non m’ardete per gioco,
ch’io me n’andrò cantando a tutte i’hore
questi son gl’occhi dove alberga Amore.

Lumi vivaci alteri
non mi siate sì feri
ch’io me n’andrò cantando ad hora ad hora
questi son gl’occhi donde il ciel s’indora.
