Original text and translations

Italian.png Italian text

Ragion è ben ch'alcuna volta io canti,
però ch' ò sospirate sì gran tempo;
che mai non incomincio assai per tempo
per adequar col riso i dolor tanti.

Et s'io potesse far ch' agli occhi santi
porgesse alcun diletto qualche dolce mio detto,
o me beato sopra gli altri amanti!
Ma più quand' io dirò senza mentire:
"Donna mi prega, per ch'io voglio dire."

Canzoniere 70, stanza 2
 English.png English translation

It is just that at some time I sing,
since I have sighed for so long a time;
that I shall never begin soon enough
to make my smiling equal so many sorrows.

And if I could make some sweet saying of mine
give delight to those holy eyes,
oh me blessed above other lovers!
But most when I can say without lying:
"A lady begs me; therefore I wish to speak."
