Italian text

Cedan l’antiche tue care vittorie
Regina ancor del mond’altiera Roma
E i grand’ archi ch’il tempo
Non doma s’inchi non
Con le lor alte memorie

Cantin novi poemi e nov’historie
de tuoi novi trofei la nobil soma
E cinga quella venerabil chioma
Nove ghirlande di perpetue glorie.

Mentre novella alma Vittoria in torno
Di numero infinito il caro cinto
de’ corie d’alme in bel trionfo mena
Gl’occhi son l’armi e più d’una catena son le tue treccie,
O fortunato giorno ch’io veni e vidi
E restai preso e vinto.
