Ben qui si mostra il ciel va go e sereno,<br>
Ben qui si mostra il ciel vago e sereno,<br>
E qui ridon le rose ei lieti fiori,<br>
E qui ridon le rose ei lieti fiori,<br>
Spirando amanti odori,<br>
Spirando amanti odori,<br>

Onde venen, si dolce ai petti porge <br>
Onde venen, si dolce ai petti porge <br>
Ch'il cor soavemente,<br>
Ch'il cor soavemente,<br>
Pien di dolce desio morendo langue.
Pien di dolce desio morendo langue. <br>

Beautiful shows here the sky, vague and clear, <br>
Here smile the roses, and the happy flowers, <br>
Blowing loving smells <br>
Wake the birds to a sweet pleasant singing. <br>
But in the end bad luck arises, <br>
Because Love, silently, <br>
Waves with flowers and herbs a quiet snake. <br>
To the breasts of whom comes he offers it gently <br>
And the heart, sweetly, <br>
Languishes, and dies filled with sweet desires. <br>


''Note: it is particularly difficult to translate the manyfold meanings of Renaissance languages (Italian, in this case). Many of the repetitions that appear in the English translation are not present in the Italian original, which allows many more "nuances" to the various love expressions.''

Italian.png Italian text Ben qui si mostra il ciel vago e sereno,
E qui ridon le rose ei lieti fiori,
Spirando amanti odori,
Destan gli augelli a dolce canto ameno.
Ma ria ventur'al fin lasso, ne sorge,
Ch'Amor tacitamente
Tesse fra fiori e l'herbe un placido angue.
Onde venen, si dolce ai petti porge
Ch'il cor soavemente,
Pien di dolce desio morendo langue.

Translation(s):
English.png English translation Beautiful shows here the sky, vague and clear,
Here smile the roses, and the happy flowers,
Blowing loving smells
Wake the birds to a sweet pleasant singing.
But in the end bad luck arises,
Because Love, silently,
Waves with flowers and herbs a quiet snake.
To the breasts of whom comes he offers it gently
And the heart, sweetly,
Languishes, and dies filled with sweet desires.

Note: it is particularly difficult to translate the manyfold meanings of Renaissance languages (Italian, in this case). Many of the repetitions that appear in the English translation are not present in the Italian original, which allows many more "nuances" to the various love expressions.
