Original text and translations

Italian text Io mi pensai che spento fusse'l foco Ch'adamar voi m'inchina E gli ard'hor piu e piu mi s'avicina Sdegno mi fé parer che 'l fusse spento Ma l'empia gelosia Me'l raccese via piu che fiamm'al vento E voi nimica mia Piu bell'ogni hor vi fat'e manco pia Ma se pietat' havess' alma Nanina Il diro pur voi sareste divina.
