Italian
Quand'io veggio dal ciel scender l'aurora
co la fronte di rose et co' crin' d'oro,
Amor m'assale, ond'io mi discoloro,
et dico sospirando: Ivi è Laura ora.
O felice Titon, tu sai ben l'ora
da ricovrare il tuo caro tesoro:
ma io che debbo far del dolce alloro?
che se 'l vo' riveder, conven ch'io mora.
l vostri dipartir' non son sí duri,
ch'almen di notte suol tornar colei
che non a schifo le tue bianche chiome:
le mie notti fa triste, e i giorni oscuri,
quella che n'à portato i penser' miei,
né di sé m'à lasciato altro che 'l nome.

Auf die Morgenröte
Language:
German
Wann die goldne Frühe, neugeboren,
Am Olymp mein matter Blick erschaut,
Dann erblaß' ich, wein' und seufze laut:
Dort im Glanze wohnt, die ich verloren!
Grauer Tithon! du empfängst Auroren
Froh aufs neu, sobald der Abend taut;
Aber ich umarm' erst meine Braut
An des Schattenlandes schwarzen Toren.
Tithon! Deines Alters Dämmerung
Mildert mit dem Strahl der Rosenstirne
Deine Gattin, ewig schön und jung:
Aber mir erloschen die Gestirne,
Sank der Tag in öde Finsternis,
Als sich Molly dieser Welt entriß.
