Che fai meco, mio cor misero e solo?

Language: Italian (Italiano)

Our translations: GER

Che fai meco, mio cor misero e solo?
Deh, vanne, omai là dove Sue grazie
Amor da due begli occhi piove!
Apri a la gioia il seno
Nè ti doglia, il morir, se verrai meno
Poichè non è ch’aspire
Mortal di girne al Ciel e non morire.

Was stellst du mit mir an

Language: German (Deutsch) after the Italian (Italiano)

Was stellst du mit mir an, mein unglückliches, einsames Herz?
Ach, geh’ nur immer dorthin, 
wo der Liebe Reize aus zwei schönen Augen regnen.
Eröffne der Freude die Brust,
auf dass der Tod dir kein Leid antut, solltest du brechen,
denn kein Sterblicher kann
den Himmel erstreben, ohne zu sterben.
