English text
Poor is the life that misses
the lover's greatest treasure,
innumerable kisses,
which end in endless pleasure.
O, then, if this be so,
shall I a virgin die?
Fie, no, no, no!
German translation
Wie armselig ist das Leben
ohne der Liebenden größter Schatz,
die unzähligen Küsse
die in endlosem Vergnügen enden.
Alsdann, wenn es so ist,
soll ich als Jungfer sterben?
Oh nein!
