Italian text
O Desir di questi occhi
almo mio sole
Che si longi da voi
m'ardet' il petto
O fin del mio voler
del mio intelletto
Dolce soav' angeliche parole.
O rose eterne
sparse fra le brine
Tener' e lievi
E piu che bella mano,
O cantar ond' il ciel
non pur huom goda
O lume del mio cor,
soav' e pieno
O mill' altre bellezze
alt' e divine,
Deh sara mai ch'io vi riveggia' et oda.
English translation
Oh eyes of my desire,
my good sun,
how long before I am with you
embracing you
ending my desire,
my intellect,
Sweet, sweet words angelic.
Oh eternal roses
scattered among the thorns
To hold your soft
And most beautyfull hand,
To sing to the sky
even though he does not enjoy it
O light of my heart,
sweet and full,
Other beauties
high and divine,
I will never turn from you to them.
