My breast I'll set upon a silver stream,<br>
and swim unto Elysium's lily fields:<br>
There in Ambrosian trees, I'll write a theme,<br>
Of all the woeful sighs my sorrow yields,<br>
A heavy, sad and swanlike song sing I,<br>
To ease my heart before I die.

English.png English translation My breast I'll set upon a silver stream,
and swim unto Elysium's lily fields:
There in Ambrosian trees, I'll write a theme,
Of all the woeful sighs my sorrow yields,
A heavy, sad and swanlike song sing I,
To ease my heart before I die.
