Ahimè, dov' è'l bel viso,
in cui solea tener suo nido Amore,
e dove ripost' era ogni mia speme?
dov' è'l bel viso, il bel viso
che ornava il mondo di splendore,
il mio caro thesoro, il sommo bene?
chi me'l ritiene, e chi me'l cela
o fortuna, o morte ingorda
cieca spietata e sorda,
chi m'ha tolto il mio cor, chi me l'asconde?
dov' è'l ben mio, che più non mi risponde?
 

English.png English translation

Alas, where's the beautiful face,
Where Love used to have his nest,
And where all of my hopes were?
Where's the beautiful face, the beautiful face
That adorned the world with magnificence,
My dear treasure, the greatest good?
Alas, who's holding it from me, who's hiding it?
Oh luck, oh greedy death
Blind pitiless and deaf,
Who took my heart from me, who's hiding it?
Where's my darling, that's not answering to me?
