Ma, se con la pietà non è in te spenta
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Available translation(s): FRE SPA
Ma, se con la pietà non è in te spenta
gentilezza e valor, che teco nacque,
non mi negar, ti prego,
anima cruda sí, ma però bella,
non mi negar a l'ultimo sospiro
un tuo solo sospir. Beata morte,
se l'addolcissi tu con questa sola
voce cortese e pia:
«Va' in pace, anima mia!»

Mas, si con la piedad no se han extinguido
Language: Spanish (Español)  after the Italian (Italiano)
Mas, si con la piedad no se han extinguido
la gentileza y valor en ti innatos,
no me niegues, te ruego,
alma tan cruel como bella,
no me niegues en mi último suspiro
un solo suspiro tuyo. Feliz muerte la mía,
si la endulzaras tú con tan sólo estas
dulcísimas palabras,
con voz cortés y piadosa:
“¡Vé en paz, alma mía!”
