Original text and translations

Italian text Ut re mi fa sol la: ogni armonia abbraccia con dolcezza, come il viso gentil di Lidia mia accoglie ogni bellezza. Dunque spesso cantate: la sol fa mi re ut, voci beate che l'alma si compiace quando sente cantar con meraviglia ciò ch'a lei si somiglia.

English translation Ut re mi fa sol la: every harmony embraces with sweetness, as the gentle face of my Urania welcomes every beauty. So sing often: la sol fa mi re ut, O blessed voices that the soul takes joy in, when it hears singing with wonder that which resembles her. Translation by Allen Garvin
