Original text and translations

Italian text

Moro, lasso, al mio duolo,

E chi può darmi vita,

Ahi, che m'ancide e non vuol darmi aita!

O dolorosa sorte,

Chi dar vita mi può,

Ahi, mi dà morte!

English translation

I die, alas, in my suffering,

And she who could give me life,

Alas, kills me and will not help me.

O sorrowful fate,

She who could give me life,

Alas, gives me death.
