Non m'è grave 'l morire
Language: Italian (Italiano)
Available translation(s): FRE
Non m'è grave 'l morire,
donna, per acquetar vostro desire,
anzi il viver m'annoia,
sapend'esser voler vostro ch'io moia.
Ben morrei più contento,
s'io fossi inanzi a voi di vita spento,
e vi vedess'a sorte
lagrimar per pietà de la mia morte.

Mourir ne me pèse pas
Language: French (Français)  after the Italian (Italiano)
Mourir ne me pèse pas,
Madame, pour satisfaire votre désir,
C'est plutôt vivre qui m'ennuie,
En sachant que vous souhaitez que je meure.
Je mourrais plus heureux
Si j'étais devant vous sans vie,
Et si je vous voyais par bonheur
Pleurer de pitié sur ma mort.
