Madonna il tuo bel viso, Che nel gran mar d'Amor m'è duc'e scortaHora tien viva mia speranz', hor mortaHora tien viva mia speranz', hor mortaEt qualhor scorg' in esso un bel serenoSpiega la vela al vento, Senza temer di scogli'o di procella: Ma se la luce nel camin vien meno, Ripiena di spavento, Cala la vela alla sua navicella, All' instabil' tua stella, Scorre l'onde fallace a dritt' e a torto, Et tem' e sper' e mai non vede 'l porto.Et tem' e sper' e mai non vede 'l porto. My Lady your fair faceMy captain and companion through the great sea of love Sometimes it keeps my hope alive sometimes it slays it Sometimes it keeps my hope alive only then to die. And when I spy in it fine fair weather Spreads out its sail to catch the wind with out fear of rocks and raging stormsBut if the light that shows my way grows fainter my hope is filled with terror lowers the sheets that sped the little boat it sails in No longer trusting your star Running from treach'rous wave hither and thither and fears and hopes but never sees safe harbour and fears and hopes and never sees safe harbour.
