10. Amor, i' ò molti et molt'anni pianto
mio grave danno in doloroso stile,
né da te spero mai men fere notti:
et però mi son mosso a pregar Morte
che mi tolla di qui, per farme lieto,
ove è colei ch'i' canto et piango in rime.

Love, I’ve had many years, and much weeping
about my grave ills in the saddest style,
nor from you do I ever hope for kinder nights:
and so I’m moved to pray to Death
to take me from here, and make me happy,
to where she is, whom I sing and weep in rhyme.
