Guarda qui che lo vedrai, [Senti qui che il sentirai.] In quest'occhi cosa vedi? [Cosa senti in questo petto?] Veggo un fanciulletto [Sento un fiero fanciulletto] che in me vibra or fiamme or dardi, ch'ora ride or piange or palpita, or piacere or duolmi dà. Cosa vedi? [Cosa senti?] Veggo un ... ... duolmi dà; a chi mai, chi mai sarà? É il furbetto di Cupido che dagli occhi al cor mi viene e per te, mio caro bene, mille scherzi in sen mi fa.

Regarde ici qui le verra,
[Ressens ici qui le sentira.]
Dans ces yeux que vois-tu ?
[Que ressens-tu dans ce cœur ?]
Je vois une jeune homme
[Je sens un fier jeune homme]
Qui en moi vibre avec tantôt des flammes tantôt des dards,
Qui tantôt sourit tantôt pleure
Tantôt palpite, tantôt plaît,
Tantôt me fait de la peine.
Que vois-tu ? [Que ressens-tu ?]
Je vois un...
... me fait de la peine ;
À qui, à qui sera-t-il ?
C'est l'espiègle Cupidon
Qui de ces yeux vient jusqu'à mon cœur
Et pour toi, mon bien-aimé,
Joue mille tours dans mon sein.
