Piango che Amor con disusato oltraggio
Di nuova fiamma il cor m'incende e rode.
Sospiro, sospiro che un fiorito e verde Maggio
Più sfortunato amante oggi non gode.
Dogliomi sol che un chiaro e vivo raggio
Di due begli occhi lagrimar non m'ode.
Che fin forse darian pietosi alquanto,
Al lamento ai sospiri al duro pianto,
ai sospiri al duro pianto.

English translation
I cry, because Love, with unused outrage
Of a new flame my heart burns and consumes.
I sigh, I sigh because a green and flourished May
The most unlucky lover now doesn't enjoy.
I pain because a clear and lively ray
From two beautiful eyes doesn't hear (probably used for rhyme instead of "see") my tears.
Maybe, pityful, they will give an end
To sorrow, to sighs and bitter crying,
To sighs and bitter crying,
