Original text and translations

Italian text

Venitave a pigliar' la cardelora,
  Donne, donne devote e voi o virginelle
     Son bianche grosse e belle
     cosa per voi citelle.

Per quelle che non esscano mai for'
  Queste se tener anno intro le celle
     Son bianche ...

Alle figiole ch'non sanno anchora
  Le donarimo queste peuerelle
     Son bianche ...

Ma queste grande de na libra luna
  Son fatte a posta per la mia patrona
     Son bianche ...
