Per la gloria d'adorarvi
voglio amarvi,
o luci care.
Amando penerò,
ma sempre v'amerò,
sì, sì, nel mio penare,
penerò,
v'amerò,
luci care.
Senza speme di diletto
vano affetto
è sospirare,
ma i vostri dolci rai
chi vagheggiar può mai
e non, e non v'amare?
penerò,
v'amerò,
luci care!

For the glory of adoring you
Language: English  after the Italian (Italiano)
For the glory of adoring you
I want to love you,
oh dear eyes.
In love I will suffer,
yet always I will love you,
Yes, in my suffering:
I will suffer,
I will love you,
dear, dear eyes.
Without a hope of pleasure
It is vain affection
to sigh,
Yet your sweet glances:
Who can ever admire them,
No, and not love you?
I will suffer,
I will love you,
dear, dear eyes.
