Original text and translations

Italian text Si come crescon alla terra i fiori Così a voi la bellezza o mio tesoro E a me'l foco ond'io mi struggo e moro. Si come or cresce agli augelli il canto Così a voi la virtude o mia speranza E a me un dolor tal ch'ogn'altro avanza. Ma si come tra fronde e fior, e canti Cangiansi in frutti, così in gran pietade Cangiate ancor voi donna la beltade.

English translation Like the flowers grow on the ground Alike grows beauty on you, my darling And alike on me the fire from which I pine away and die. Like now the song of birds grows Alike in you grows virtue, my hope And in me such a pain that goes over every other. But alike in the foliage the flowers and songs Change into fruits, alike into great pity You change your beauty again, woman.
