Io mi son giovinetta e volentieri M'allegro e canto en la stagion novella Merzč d'amore e de' dolci pensieri Io ve pe'verdi prati riguardando I bianchi fiori e gialli e i vermigli Le rose in su le spine e i bianchi gigli E tutti quanti gli vo somiglando Al viso di colui che me, amando Ha presa e terrą sempre, come quella Ch'altro non ha in disio ch'e suoi piaceri Io mi son giovinetta e volentieri M'allegro e canto en la stagion novella Merzč d'amore e de' dolci pensieri |
I am a young maiden, and I willingly Rejoice and sing in the new season Thanks to love and to my sweet thoughts I wander through green meadows gazing At the white and yellow and vermilion flowers At the roses above their thorns and the white lilies And all of them I liken To the face of him who, loving me Took me and forever will keep me as the one Who desires nothing but his pleasures I am a young maiden, and I willingly Rejoice and sing in the new season Thanks to love and to my sweet thoughts |
