Italian text: Amarilli, mia bella Non credi, o del mio cor dolce desio, D'esser tu l'amor mio? Credilo pur, e se timor t'assale, Prendi questo mio strale, Aprimi il petto e vedrai scritto in core: Amarilli, Amarilli, Amarailli è il mio amore. English translation: Amarilli, lovely Amarilli Believest thee not, oh my heart's sweet desire tis thou my heart aspires? Believe, tis true: yet should a dread besiege thee doubt not, tis vane rip my bosom open, and there inscribed you'll see Amarilli, Amarilli, Amaraillys My sweetest love art thee Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/LyudmillaFuentes Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/LyudmillaF
