Italian text

Da così dotta man sei stato fatto
Vaghissimo ritratto
Che io non saprei ridir se viva sei
O se fai dolce inganni agli occhi miei.

English translation

By such a skilled hand you were made,
Most graceful portrait,
That I could not tell if you are alive
Or if you sweetly deceive my eyes.
