Italian text

Convien ch'ovunque sia sempre cortese
Sia un cor gentil, ch'esser non può altrimente
Che per natura e per abito prese
Quel che di mutar poi non è possente
Convien ch'ovunque sia sempre palese
Un cor villan si mostri similmente,
Natura inchina al male e viene a farsi
L'abito poi difficile a mutarsi.

English translation

It befits a gentle heart, wherever it may be,
To remain courteous always, for it cannot be otherwise:
What it has learned from nature and habit,
It no longer has the power to change.
It befits a depraved heart, wherever it may be,
To reveal itself as such always.
Nature predisposes to evil, and a habit once made
Becomes difficult to change.
