Ah, rammenta, o bella Irene
Language: Italian (Italiano)  after the Italian (Italiano) 
Ah, rammenta, o bella Irene,
che giurasti a me costanza,
ritorni, amato bene,
ah, ritorni al primo amor!
Ah, rammenta, o bella Irene,
che giurasti a me costanza,
ah, ritornì, amato bene,
ah, ritorni al primo amor!

Qual conforto, oh dio, m'avanza,
chi sarà la mia speranza,
per chi viver degg'io,
se più mio non è quel core?
Chi sara la mia speranza,
se più mio non è quel cor?

Vspomni, vspomni, o Irena,

Akh, kto budet mne otradoj,
