Ah, rammenta, o bella Irene

 Ah, rammenta, o bella Irene,
 che giurasti a me costanza,
 ritorni, amato bene,
 ah, ritorni al primo amor!
 Ah, rammenta, o bella Irene,
 che giurasti a me costanza,
 ah, ritornì, amato bene,
 ah, ritorni al primo amor!
 
 Qual conforto, oh dio, m'avanza,
 chi sarà la mia speranza,
 per chi viver degg'io,
 se più mio non è quel core?
 Chi sara la mia speranza,
 se più mio non è quel cor?

Vspomni, o Irena

Vspomni, vspomni, o Irena,
vspomni kljatvy vse svoji 
i vernis', o drug bescennyj,
akh, vernis' k byloj ljubvi!
Vspomni, vspomni, o Irena,
kljatvy vernosti svoji
i vernis', o drug bescennyj,
akh, vernis' k byloj ljubvi!

Kto vernjot mne vnov' mechty
i kto budet mne otradoj?
Net, zhizni mne ne nado,
kol' menja ne ljubish' ty.
Akh, kto budet mne otradoj,
jesli menja ne ljubish' ty?
