Aria Prima: Io parto, amati lumi
 (Sung text for setting by G. Caccini)
 Matches base text
Language: Italian (Italiano) 
Io parto, amati lumi,
Rimirat'il dolor della partita
In questa fronte pallid'e smarrita.

Io parto, occhi sereni,
Fra cotanto martir non mi negate
Un guardo, non d'amor, ma di pietate.

Io part', o stelle, o soli,
Occhi numi del cor ch'in terr'adoro,
Io parto, io parto, ahi! non più part', io moro.

Sospir, tormenti e doglie,
Fidi compagni miei, querele e pianti,
Venit', io parto, addio diletti e canti.

Addio risi, addio gioie,
Addio candidi giorini e felici ore,
Restate seco in compagnia d'amore.
