TextPer tropo fede talor se perigola.Non F dolor nT pi· mortale spasemo come, senza falir, cader in biasemo: el ben se tacie e lo mal pur se cigola. Lasso colui che mai se fid= in femena. chT l'amor so veneno amaro semena. onde la morte speso se ne spigola! OimF, ch'Amor m'ha posto in cotal arzere. onde convienme ognor lagreme sparzere. s8 che de doglia lo mio cor formigola. TranslationToo much trust may place one in jeopardy.There is no pain, nor deadlier torment. than to be disgraced without fault. The good one has done is passed over in silence. whereas the bad is gossiped about. Unlucky he who ever trusted a female. because Love sows its bitter poison from which often death is reaped. Alas! Love has placed me in such burning torment that I must always shed tears. so that pain is crawling all over my heart. Text revision and translation © Giovanni Carsaniga |
