Mie speranze lusinghiere

Language: Italian (Italiano)

Our translations: DUT

Mie speranze lusinghiere,
Desiato invan piacere,
Falsi sguardi, 
benchè tardi,
Da voi sciolto pur mi volto
Al sentier di libertade.
E d'amore sgombro il core
Che languì senza pietade.

Fuggo amore, empio tiranno,
Ch'io servii sol per mio danno;
I martiri,
I sospiri,
Le querele
Del crudele
Non fia più ch'io provi mai,
Sì diversi
Io soffersi
Già per lui tormenti e guai.

Mio diletto e mio contento,
Presso un rio di puro argento,
Fia sull'erbe
Verdi acerbe,
Di riposo
Obblioso
Confortar l'afflitta mente,
Ove l'aura
Ne restaura
Che tra i fior spirar si sente.

Mijn bedrieglijke hoop

Language: Dutch (Nederlands) after the Italian (Italiano)

Mijn bedrieglijke hoop, 
die vergeefs naar vreugde verlangt.
Ik zal mij, 
alhoewel (te) laat, 
van u bevrijden en begeef mij 
op het pad van de vrijheid.
En dit hart dat onbeantwoord verlangde 
zal de liefde bannen.

Ga weg, Amor, 
goddeloze tiran 
die ik ondanks mezelf heb gediend.
De kwellingen, 
de zuchten 
en de twisten 
van de wrede (Amor),
nooit heb ik er zoveel 
verschillende moeten doorstaan.
Voor hem (Amor) niets dan kwellingen en ongelukken.

Mijn verrukking en tevredenheid
vormen een rivier van zuiver zilver 
op de kruiden 
en het jonge groen
waar de Zefirwind 
voelbaar tussen 
de bloemen waait, 
herstelt en troost 
de verdrukte geest 
die tot rust komt.
