I won't pray who's not listening,<br>
My goddess is lacking of love;<br>
She laughs, sneers, jokes, <br>
She despises who feels love.<br>
Alas, my poor heart!<br><br>
I cry for mercy day and night,<br>
But the enemy doesn't listen;<br>
She's deaf, dumb, blind,<br>
She's lacking of true love<br>
Alas, my poor heart!<br><br>
I tell you: you live in pain,<br>
And lose time along with the green years;<br>
One takes as amusement, as pleasure,<br>
As comfort someone else's pain!<br>
Alas, my poor heart!<br>

Italian.png Italian text Non vuò pregare chi non m'ascolta,
Chè la mia diva d'amore è priva;
La ride, la ghigna, la burla,
la sprezza chi fa l'amore
Ahimè'l mio core!

Grido pietade la notte e'l giorno,
Ma la nemica non ode mica;
L'è sorda, l'è muta, l'è cieca,
l'è priva di vero amore
Ahimè'l mio core!

Sai ch'io ti dico: tu vai penando,
E'l tempo perdi con gli anni verdi;
Si prende a sollazzo, a piacere,
a conforto l'altrui dolore
Ahimè'l mio core!

Translation(s):
English.png English translation I won't pray who's not listening,
My goddess is lacking of love;
She laughs, sneers, jokes,
She despises who feels love.
Alas, my poor heart!

I cry for mercy day and night,
But the enemy doesn't listen;
She's deaf, dumb, blind,
She's lacking of true love
Alas, my poor heart!

I tell you: you live in pain,
And lose time along with the green years;
One takes as amusement, as pleasure,
As comfort someone else's pain!
Alas, my poor heart!
