Lunghi danni e tormenti
Stratti affanni pen’e martiri
E lagrim’ e sospiri
E mille notte di gridi e lamenti
Diami fortuna
E morte morte l’arco scocchi
Pur ch’una volta
Baci que’ begl’occhi.∗ ∗ ∗
Long pains and torments
Layers upon layers of worries, suffering and sacrifices
And tears, and sighs
And a thousand nights of crying and lamenting
All that, Fortune, bring unto me,
And let death strike me
For to kiss once again
