Fa una canzona senza note nere
Se mai bramasti la mia grazia havere
Falla d'un tuonó ch'invita al dormire,
Dolcemente, dolcemente facendo la finire.
Per entro non vi spargere durezze
Che le mie orecchie non vi sono avezze
Falla d'un tuonó...
Ne vi far cifra o segno contra segno
Sopra ogni cosa quest'è'l mio disegno
Falla d'un tuonó...
Con questo stile il fortunato Orfeo
Proserpina la giù placar poteo,
Falla d'un tuonó...
Questo è lo stile che quetar già feo
Con dolcezza à Saul lo spirto reo!
Falla d'un tuonó ...

Write it so that ...

Managed to pacify Proserpina, down under
Write it so that ...

Saul's fierce spirit!
Write it so that ...
