French.png French text

Mon coeur se recommande à vous,
Tout plein d'ennui et de martyre;
Au moins en dépit des jaloux
Faites qu'adieu vous puisse dire!
Ma bouche qui savait sourire
Et conter propos gracieux
Ne fait maintenant que maudire
Ceux qui m'ont banni de vos yeux.

English.png English translation

My heart is offered still to you
Full now of woe and deep despairing!
Be not to constancy untrue;
Say one farewell, my sorrow sharing!
My mouth which once could smile in gladness,
And charming stories improvise
Now can only curse in its madness
Those who banished me from your eyes.

Alternative version
My heart doth beg you'll not forget
My heavy heart, with sorrow aching
And spite of jealous eyes e'en yet,
One last farewell we might be taking!
Once, smiles my lips were ever curving
And gracious words were all they knew.
Now alone for cursing they're serving
Those who banish me, love, from you.

Italian.png Italian translation

Il mio cuore si raccomanda a voi
colmo di malinconia e di cruccio:
almeno a dispetto dei gelosi,
fate che vi possa dire addio!
La mia bocca, che sapeva sorridere
e raccontare cose graziose,
ora non fa che maledire
coloro che mi hanno bandito dai vostri occhi.

Dit is een vrije vertaling.

Eindelijk leg ik mijn hart in jouw handen
Nog vol van smart en verdriet.
En voor hen die misschien jaloers zijn,
Zeg maar vaarwel aan oude pijnen
Mijn lippen kunnen weer glimlachen
En heerlijke verhalen vertellen.
Want ik hoef niemand meer te vervloeken
Die me uit jouw ogen dreigt te verbannen.
