by Giulio Strozzi (1583 - 1660)

Pace arrabiata
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Our translations:  FRE
Come può non come suol
quell'altero chiede pace
pace vuol
Grida il fiero
ad Amor e non à te
curvo il collo e bacio il piè

Replicò Fillide allor
servime che servi amor
tù non conosci ò stolto
che Vicario d'Amor fatto è il mio volto

come può non come suol
quell'altero chiede pace
pace vuol.

Privileggio ha beltà
guerra e pace
bella donna e rompe e fà
ecco tace
Quell'ardente e che può dir?
se non fingere e soffrir?

quell'altier che la sprezzò
fintamente l'inchinò
si vede ben ch'allora
quel che bestemmia il cor la lingua adora

Privileggio ha beltà
guerra e pace
bella donna e rompe e fà.
