Original text and translations

Latin.png Latin text

Cara, vale! ingenio praestans, pietate, pudore,

Et plus quam natae nomine cara, vale!

Cara Maria, vale! At veniet felicius aevum,

Quando iterum tecum, sim modo dignus, ero.

Cara, redi, laeta tum dicam voce, paternos

Eia! age in amplexus, cara Maria, redi.


English.png English translation From 1834 New England Magazine

Dear one, farewell! with genius blessed,

With grace and piety,

But dearer by a daughter's name,

Alas ! farewell to thee

Farewell, Maria dear! a happier time

Will surely be,

When I again, if worthy found,

Shall meet with thee.

Dear one, return ! with joyful voice

My words will be,

Come to thy father's arms, Maria dear,

Return again to me.
