E che no, furbetto Amore, che non cogli alla tua rete questo mio scaltrito cuore. E che no, furbetto Amore. Tendi pur lacciuoli o vischio di beltà nel verde prato; il mio cuore accivettato schernirà zimbelli e fischio. Tempo fu, negar nol voglio, che ai tuoi lacci ei restò colto, ma da quel penoso imbroglio seppe uscir libero e sciolto. Ed or che gode in libertà gradita tranquilli i giorni e fortunate l'ore, gli ascosi agguati da lontano addita, e degl'inganni tuoi non ha timore. E che no, furbetto Amore... Spiritello, furbettello, cattivello, tu se' pur la gran cavezza sempre avvezza a truffare or quest'or quello. Zingarello, buffoncello, serpentello, tu se' pur il gran folletto, ma se pensi al trabocchetto ricondurmi, se' in errore. E che no, furbetto Amore...

Y no, listillo Amor, no cojas en tu red a mi avispado corazón. No, listillo Amor. Tiende también lacitos o muérdago de belleza en el prado verde; mi corazón seducido se burlará de crédulos y silbo. El tiempo pasó, no lo quiero negar, que en tus lazos quedó atrapado, pero de este embrollo penoso supo salir libre y resuelto. Y ahora que goza de agredecida libertad tranquilos los dias y afortunadas las horas, apunta desde lejos las emboscadas y no tiene miedo de tus engaños. No, listillo Amor... Pequeño espíritu, listillo, pillín, tu eres también el gran cabestro siempre dispuesto a engañar o esto o aquello. Gitanillo, payasete, culebrilla, tu también eres el gran duende, pero si piensas en devolverme a la trampilla, te equivocas. No, listillo Amor...
