Occhi miei, che vedeste
Il bell'idolo vostro in preda altrui
Perchè non vi chiudeste?
E tu anima mia
Perch'al gran duolo
Non te'n fuggisti à volo?
Ahi che posso dire
Ch'il soverchio dolor non fa morire.

My eyes, when you saw your beautiful idol in the grip of others
Why did you not close yourselves?
And you, my soul, why did you not fly from the great grief?

Ah, what can I say that the immense pain doesn't make one die.
