Italian text
- Quando ritrovo la mia pastorella
- Al prato con le pecor' in pastura,
- Io mi gli accost' e presto la saluto.
- La mi risponde "Tu sia el benvenuto"
- Et poi gli dic' in quella, "O gentil pastorella,
- Non men crudel che bella, Sei del mio ben ribella;
- Deh non esser ver me cotanto dura".
- Cosi rispond' anch'ella,
- "Disposta son a quel tuo cor desia,
- Ma se non hai denari, va alla tu via.
English translation
- When I meet my sheperdess
- In the meadow, with her grazing sheep,
- I get near, and greet her.
- She answers: "May you be welcome"
- And then I tell her, "Oh gentle sheperdess,
- Not less cruel than lovely, you rebel against my love;
- Alas, don't be so hard to me!".
- And so she answers,
- "I am willing to what your heart desires,
- But if you have no money, go your way!"
