Original text and translations

Italian text

Hor lieto il pesce a lat'ha'l lito e l'onde,
Van gl'augei in frett'in fratt'in frotta fuori,
Spende spand'amor dardi in aqua e in sponde,
Fora ogni fera e fura et arde i cori,
Ne'l ciel m'offende ò ne fand'aura infonde,
Ne succhia secco il sol si che tra fiori,
Son masto, mesto e misto in pianto e lutto,
Detto indotto à miei lai da doglia indutto.
