Original text and translations

Ombra mai fu di vegetabile, cara ed amabile, soave piu.

Never such shade was there of a plant, dear and lovable, more gentle.

---

Ombra mai fu ... Serse's aria from Serse

Frondi tenere e belle Del mio Platano amato, Per voi risplenda il Fato Tuoni, Lampi, e Procelle Non vi oltraggino mai la cara pace, Ne giunga a profanarvi Austro rapace. Ombra mai fu Di Vegetabile, Care ed amabile Soave piu.

Tender and beautiful fronds of my beloved plane tree, Let Fate smile upon you. May thunder, lightning, and storms never bother your dear peace, Nor may you be profaned by blowing winds. Never was made a plant, dear and loving, or more gentle.
