Più bella set’assai
che non è’l sole,
che tutt’il mond’empiti di splendore,
l’Aura mia bella,
Voi set’il mi’amore.

German.png German translation

Viel schöner seid Ihr,
als die Sonne ist,
die alle Welt mit Glanz erfüllt,
meine schöne Freundin,
ihr seid meine Liebste.

Translation by Gerhard Weydt

You are much more beautiful
than is the sun.
which fills the whole world with splendour,
my beautiful friend,
you are my beloved.
