Chiaro risplender suole

Chiaro risplender suole
A tutti il mio bel sole
Ma oscuro e fosco a me misero appare
Onde in lagrime amare
Consumo la mia vita
Ah, s’io potessi almen chiederle aita!
Lieto all’or ne morrei
E finirian, oimè, gli affanni miei.

Hell strahlst du andern nur

Hell strahlst du andern nur,
du, meine schöne Sonne,
doch mir, mir Armem scheinst du düster, trüb.
So frist’ ich unter bittern Tränen
mein Leben.
Ach, könnte ich sie doch um Hilfe bitten!
Froh könnt’ ich sterben dann,
und all mein Kummer hätte, ach, ein End’.
