Al destin, che la minaccia, togli, oh dio! quest'alma oppressa, prima rendimi a me stessa, e poi sdegnati con me. Come vuoi d'un rischio in faccia ch'io risponda a' detti tuoi? Ah conoscermi tu puoi, e 'l mio cor ben sai qual è.

Du destin qui la menace Écarte , ô dieu, cette âme opprimée, D'abord rends-moi à moi-même Et ensuite indigne-toi contre moi. Comment veux-tu en face du danger Que je réponde à tes paroles ? Ah tu peux me connaître Et mon cœur, tu sais bien comment il est.
