Altri canti d'Amor, tenero arciero, I dolci vezzi, e i sospirati baci; Narri gli sdegni e le bramate paci Quand'unisce due alme un sol pensiero. Di Marte io canto, furibondo e fiero, I duri incontri, e le battaglie audaci; Strider le spade, e bombeggiar le faci, Fo nel mio canto bellicoso e fiero. Tu cui tessuta han di cesareo alloro La corona immortal Marte e Bellona, Gradisci il verde ancor novo lavoro, Che mentre guerre canta e guerre sona, Oh gran Fernando, l'orgoglioso choro, Del tuo sommo valor canta e ragiona.

Inye pojut ob Amure — nezhnom luchnike, O sladkikh charakh i zhelannykh pocelujakh, Podrobno rasskazyvajut o ssorakh i dolgozhdannykh vossojedinenijakh, Kogda dve dushi ob"edinjajutsja odnim pomyslom. Ja zhe poju o Marse jarostnom i zhestokom, O grubykh stolknovenijakh i smelykh srazhenijakh. Mechi ljazgajut, i vspyshki orudij otdajutsja `ekhom — Ja zhe sozdaju `eto v mojej voinstvennoj i jarostnoj pesne. Vy, dlja kogo bessmertnyj venec carstvennogo lavra Byl spletjon Marsom i Bellonoj, Primite `eto novoje sochinenije, Ved' poka vojna pojot i igrajet, O velikij Ferdinand, — `etot gordyj khor Budet pet', utverzhdaja Vashu nesravnennuju doblest'.
