Text and translations

Italian text Vaghi augelletti, che per valli e monti Accompagna(s)te con pietosi accenti I miei duri lamenti, Gioite hor meco in festa ed allegrezza, Poi che l'aspra durezza Della mia Clori (donna) ha intenerito amore, Onde son quasi di me stesso fuore.

German translation Hübsche Vögel, die ihr über Täler und Berge mit mitleidsvollen Tönen begleitet (habt) meine schweren Klagen, erfreut euch nun mit mir in Feiern und Fröhlichkeit, weil die grausame Hartherzigkeit meiner Clori (Dame) erweicht hat Amor, daher bin ich wie außerhalb meiner selbst. Translation by Gerhard Weydt

English translation Pretty birds, that over valleys and mountains have accompanied (accompany)with pitious notes my heavy lamentations, rejoice now with me with feasting and joyfulness, for the cruel hardheartedness of my Clori (lady) has been softened by Love, therefore I feel as if out of myself. Translation by Gerhard Weydt
