Or che in gioia credea viver contento<br>
<poem>
m'apre la gioia il seno,<br>
Or che in gioia credea viver contento
fuggesi l’alma e’l cor, oimè, vien meno.<br>
m'apre la gioia il seno,
 
fuggesi l’alma e’l cor, oimè, vien meno.
O sempre crudo Amore,<br>
nella gioia non men che nel dolore,<br>
tu sempre, o peni il core, o pur gioisca,<br>
fai ch’amando languisca.<br>


O sempre crudo Amore,
nella gioia non men che nel dolore,
tu sempre, o peni il core, o pur gioisca,
fai ch’amando languisca.

Now when in joy I thought to live content<br>
<poem>
joy breaches my breast<br>
Now when in joy I thought to live content
my soul and heart flee, ah alas! I faint.<br>
joy breaches my breast
my soul and heart flee, ah alas! I faint.


Oh ever cruel Love,<br>
Oh ever cruel Love,
in joy as in sorrow,<br>
in joy as in sorrow,
You ever bringing woe to the heart, or happiness,<br>
You ever bringing woe to the heart, or happiness,
you make me languish loving.
you make me languish loving.
</poem>

Or che in gioia credea viver contento
m'apre la gioia il seno,
fuggesi l’alma e’l cor, oimè, vien meno.

O sempre crudo Amore,
nella gioia non men che nel dolore,
tu sempre, o peni il core, o pur gioisca,
fai ch’amando languisca.

Now when in joy I thought to live content
joy breaches my breast
my soul and heart flee, ah alas! I faint.

Oh ever cruel Love,
in joy as in sorrow,
You ever bringing woe to the heart, or happiness,
you make me languish loving.
