Original text and translations
English text
- Celia has a thousand charms:
- 'Tis heaven within her arms.
- While I stand gazing on her face
- Some new and some resistless Grace
- Fill with fresh magic all the place.
- But while the nymph I thus adore,
- I should my wretched fate deplore.
- But, oh, Mirtillo, have a care,
- Her sweetness is beyond compare.
- But then she’s false as well as fair.
- Have a care, Mirtillo, have a care.
