English original text

Ladie, those cherries plentie,
Which grow on your lips daintie,
Ere long will fade and languish,
Then now, while yet they last them,
O let me pull and test them.

Lady, those cherries plenty,
Which grow on your lips dainty,
Ere long will fade and languish,
Then now, while yet they last them,
O let me pull and test them.

Italian.png Italian translation

Signora, quell'abbondanza di ciliegie,
Che crescono delicate sulle tue labbra,
Ben presto svanirà e languirà.
Quindi ora, mentre ancora durano,
Oh lasciami raccoglierle e assaggiarle.
