Se'l pensier che mi strugge
Com’ e pungente e saldo
Così vestisse d’un color conforme.
Forse tel m’arde e fugge
Ch’avria parte del caldo e desteriasi
Amor là dov’hor dorme.
Men solitarie ‘l orme
Foran de miei pié lassi
Per campagne e per colli
Men gli occhi ad ogn’hor molli
Ardendo lei
Che come un ghiaccio stasi
E non lassa in me dramma
Che non sia foco e fiamma.
