A | A quest’olmo, a quest’ombre ed a quest’onde | ||
ove per uso ancor torno sovente, | |||
eterno | eterno i’ deggio, ed avrò sempre in mente, | ||
quest’antro, questa selva e queste fronde. | |||
In voi sol, felici acque, amiche sponde, | |||
Amor mi mostra e del mio foco ardente | il mio passato ben quasi presente | ||
tra le vostre | Amor mi mostra, e del mio foco ardente | ||
Qui di quel lieto | tra le vostre fresch’aure i semi asconde. | ||
Qui di quel lieto dì soave riede | |||
la rimembranza, allor che la mia Clori | |||
tutta in dono se stessa e’l cor mi diede; | |||
già spirar sento erbette intorno e fiori, | |||
ovunque o fermi il guardo o mova il piede, | |||
dell’antiche dolcezze ancor gli honori. | |||

<poem> | |||
That poplar tree, the shade and the lake, | |||
where I still often return, | |||
eternal duty, I shall never forget | |||
that refuge, that wood and the verdure. | |||
In you, sun, happy water, welcoming shores, | |||
Love shows me my almost present past, | |||
and from my ardent fire, | |||
amongst your fresh auras the seeds are concealed. | |||
From that sad and gentle day come | |||
memories of Cloris, my love, | |||
succumbing her body and soul; | |||
I still feel the murmur of the grass and the flowers, | |||
wherever I turn to look and wherever I stand, | |||
and the traces of erstwhile sweetness. | |||
