Italian text

Cedan l’antiche tue care vittorie
Regina ancor del mond’altiera Roma
E i grand’archi che ’l tempo anco non doma
S’inchinin 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 intorno
Di numero infinito il carro cinto
Di cori e 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 venni e vidi e restai preso e vinto.
