Original text and translations

Italian text Se desio di fuggir vi sprona e move I rai del sol estivi, Saggi amici Pastori, Tutti lieti e festivi De prati uscite fuori E, lasciando gli'Armenti A pascere l'herbette e i fiori intenti E da Lupi sicuri e d'ogni belva, Venite a ricrearvi in questa Selva.

English translation If your wish to escape from the rays of the summer sun moves you, wise shepards, then let's happily leave the meadows, letting heards eat grass and flowers without the danger of wolves, and have rest coming into this forest. Thanks to Andrea Friggi for the English translation.
