Del mio sol vezzosi rai
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Our translations:  ENG
Del mio sol vezzosi rai  
v'ascondete ora da me;
ma perché?
Senza voi viver non so.

Quell'ardor, che da voi scese,
che m'accese, e m'arde ancora,
e arderà per sin ch'io mora
quel la vita al cor donò.

The charming rays of my sun
Language: English  after the Italian (Italiano) 
The charming rays of my sun
are hidden from me; 
but why?
Without you, I can’t live.

The ardor that descended from you
lit me, and still burns me,
and will burn until I die,
since you gave my heart life.
