In solitaria stanza
Langue per doglia atroce:
Il labbro è senza voce,
Senza respiro il sen.
Come in deserta aiuola,
Che di rugiade è priva,
Sotto alla vampa estiva
Molle narcisso svien.
Io, dall'affanno oppresso,
Corro per vie rimote,
E grido in suon che puote
Le rupi intenerir:
Salvate, o Dei pietosi,
Quella beltà celeste:
Voi forse non sapreste
Un'altra Irene ordir.

Dans une pièce solitaire
Language: French (Français)  after the Italian (Italiano)
Dans une pièce solitaire
Elle se languit dans une douleur atroce ;
Les lèvres sans voix,
Le sein sans souffle.
Comme dans un massif désert,
Abandonné par la rosée,
Sous le feu de l'été
Un faible narcisse se fane.
Moi, oppressé par l'anxiété,
Je cours à travers des chemins éloignés,
Et je pousse des cris qui pourraient
Adoucir des rochers.
Sauvez, ô dieux pleins de pitié,
Cette beauté céleste ;
Peut-être que vous ne saurez pas
Créer une autre Irène.
