Lusinghe più care
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Lusinghe più care
d'Amor veri dardi
Vezzose volate
sul labbro, nei guardi,
e tutta involate
l'altrui libertà.
Gelosi sospetti,
diletti con pene;
fra gioie e tormenti
momenti di spene,
voi l'armi farete
di vaga beltà.

Sweetest flattery
Language: English after the Italian (Italiano)
Sweetest flattery,
love's truest darts,
You fly charmingly
through others' gazes
and on their lips,
and so rob everyone of liberty.
Jealous suspicions,
delights intertwined with pain,
moments of hope
betwixt joy and anguish:
behold how you make
a weapon out of beauty.
