Original text and translations

Italian text Per duo coralli ardenti or moro, or torno in vita. e l'aura ch'indi spira è sì gradita che di mille tormenti bramo sentir l'assalto in mezzo al petto, per morir e rinascer in diletto.

English translation For two burning corals now I die, now I return to life, and the breeze that then exhales is so welcome that I yearn to feel the assault of a thousand torments within my breast, to die and to be born again in delight. Translation by Allen Garvin Note: "corals" signifies lips.
