Cor mio, deh, non languire
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Cor mio, deh, non languire, Che fai teco languir l'anima mia. Odi i caldi sospiri: a te gl'invia La pietat'e 'l desire. S'io ti potessi dar morend'aita, Morrei per darti vita. Ma viv'ohimè, ch'ingiustamente more Chi vivo tien ne l'altrui pett'il core.

Mon cœur, ah, ne perds pas tes forces
Language: French (Français) after the Italian (Italiano)
Mon cœur, ah, ne perds pas tes forces, Ou mon âme périra avec toi. Entends mes soupirs brûlants : à toi j'envoie Ma compassion et mon désir. Si je pouvais mourir pour t'aider, Je mourrais pour de donner la vie. Mais je vis hélas, car il meurt injustement, Celui qui vit avec son cœur dans la poitrine d'un autre.
