In luogo e forma di Parnaso ho 'l core
Language: Italian (Italiano)
In luogo e forma di Parnaso ho 'l core, Dove per scampo mio convien ch'io monte, Son mie muse i pensier ch'a tutte l'ore Mi fan presenti le bellezze conte; Onde sovente versan gli occhi fore Lacrime molte, ho l'Eliconio fonte: Per tai montagne, per tai ninfe ed acqui, Com'ha piaciuto al ciel poeta nacqui. Or non alcun de reggi, Non favorevol man d'imperatore, Non sommo sacerdote e gran pastore Mi dien tai grazie, onori e privileggi; Ma di lauro m'infronde Mio cor, gli miei pensieri e le mie onde.

Als ich in mir den Parnassos fand
Language: German (Deutsch)  after the Italian (Italiano)
Als ich in mir den Parnassos fand, erklomm ich ihn unverdrossen Meine Gedanken in Musengewand waren mir hehre Genossen. Und wie das Sinnen mich überwand, sind mir die Tränen entflossen, So schenkte ein Gott mir den Berg Parnaß, Musen und Helikons heiliges Naß Kaiser und Papst, sehr wie ich wähle, Könige, eurer Gunst bin ich satt Tränen und Sinnen o, meine Seele, und in den Haaren ein Lorberblatt.
