Silentio nocivo
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Available translation(s): FRE
Dolcissimi respiri
de nostri cori amanti
Son le parole affetuose,
E i canti.
Sfoga o mio core
Il tuo cocente ardore
Se tal hor non ti tocca,
Nodrirti almen
Di due soavi baci
Afflitissima bocca
Stolta sei se tu taci
Parla, canta, respira
E sana il duolo
Canta, che solo
Dolcissimi respiri
De nostri cori amanti
Son le parole affetuose,
E i canti.

Silence nuisible
Language: French (Français)  after the Italian (Italiano)
Les doux souffles
de nos cœurs aimants
sont des paroles affectueuses
et des chants.
Laisse éclater, ô mon cœur,
ton ardeur brûlante.
Si parfois elle ne te touche pas
au moins tu peux te nourrir
de deux baisers suaves,
bouche affligée,
alors tu es sotte quand tu te tais,
parle, chante, respire,
exhale la douleur.
Les doux souffles
de nos cœurs aimants
sont des paroles affectueuses
et des chants.
