Questa crudele e pia  
Piange al mio pianto  
Piange al mio pianto e duolse al mio dolore,
E duolse al mio dolore,
Ma non arde l'ardore.
Ma non arde l'ardore.
Tu, senza amor pietosa,
Tu, senza amor pietosa,
sia pur a tuo voler anco sdegnosa
sia pur a tuo voler anco sdegnosa
Ch&eacute; amor de l'amor mio,
Ché amor de l'amor mio,
E non piet&agrave; del mio dolor desio.
E non pietà del mio dolor desio.

<poem>
That cruel and kind woman
cries for my weeping and suffers for my woe,
but does not burn ardently.
You, with no kind love,
can even shun your emotions,
but I long for love for my loving,
and not pity for my pain.
