Giovanni Battista Guarini (1538 - 1612)
Amor, se giusto sei
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Available translation(s): FRE SPA
Amor, se giusto sei,
fa che la donna mia
anch'ella giusta sia.
Io t'amo, tu il conosci, ed ella il vede,
ma piú mi strazia e mi trafigge il core,
e per piú mio dolore
e per dispregio tuo, non mi dà fede.
Non sostener, Amor, che nel tuo regno
là dov'io ho sparta fede mieta sdegno,
ma fa, giusto signore,
ch'in premio dell'amor io colga amore.

Amor, si justo eres
Language: Spanish (Español)  after the Italian (Italiano)
Amor, si justo eres,
haz que mi amada
sea también justa.
Yo la amo, tú lo sabes, y ella lo ve,
mas mucho me atormenta y me atraviesa el corazón,
y para mi mayor dolor
y para tu desprecio, no me da su fidelidad.
No reclamo, Amor, que en tu reino
ahí donde yo he sembrado fidelidad coseche desprecio,
pero haz, justo señor,
que en premio de mi amor yo amor reciba.
