Ch’io mai vi possa
Lasciar d’amare
Non lo credete
Pupile care!
Ne men per gioco
V’ingannero, no.
Voi foste, e siete
Le mie faville,
E voi sarete,
Care pupile,
Il mio ben foco
Fin ch’io vivro.
That I could ever
Cease to love you!
Do not believe,
O dearest eyes,
Not even in jest
Will I deceive you.
You were and are
My love’s flame
And you will be,
Dearest eyes,
My true love
So long as I live.
