Italian text
Il dí s'appressa, et non pòte esser lunge,
sí corre il tempo et vola,
Vergine unica et sola,
e 'l cor or coscïentia or morte punge.
Raccomandami al tuo figliuol, verace
homo et verace Dio,
ch'accolga 'l mïo spirto ultimo in pace.
English translation
by Mick Swithinbank
The day is coming, surely coming soon,
such is time’s incessant flight,
Virgin peerless and unequalled,
and my heart is oppressed
now by pangs of conscience, now by thoughts of death.
Commend me to your Son,
true man and very God:
may He receive me in peace when I draw my last breath.
