Original text and translations

Italian text Io morirò d'Amore S'al mio scampo non vien sdegno e furore Poiche Madonn'alla mia vera fede Solo de finto Amor vuol dar mercede E perche del mio foco Prende solazzo e gioco Se qualche gel non tempra tant' ardore Io morirò d'Amore

English translation I will go die for pure love; Except rage and disdain come to recure love Since in reward of all my faithful serving My lady gives disgrace for well deserving And in my flame sans measure Takes her disport and pleasure Unless some frost assuage this heat and cure love I will go die for pure love. Anonymous translation from Musica Transalpina (1588)
