Text and translation
Occhi vaghi e lucenti,
albergo di cui sol e degno Amore,
onde haveste valore
di ralumar i miei ch’eran già spenti,
e l’alma ritornar entro al suo velo
qual era fatto gielo:
ch’ella di partir mossa era a volo,
ma l’impediste voi per più mio duolo.
Lovely and shining eyes,
dwelling of which only Love is worthy,
from whence you have the ability
to relight mine, that are already extinguished,
and to return the soul within its veil
that was made of ice:
she was making to leave by flight,
but you held her back, to increase my suffering.
