Italian text
Sian galanti di Valenza
qui per passo capitati,
d'amor gia presi et leghati
delle donne di Fiorenza.
Son molto gentile et belle
donne nella terra nostra;
questa gran belleza
vostra con amore a compagnate;
se non siate inamorate
e' saria meglio esser senza.
English translation
We are gallant people from Valencia
Come here passing by,
Already taken and tied for love
By the women of Florence.
They are very kind and beautiful
The women in our land;
You accompany this great beauty
Of yours with love;
If you are not in love
It would be better not to have it.
