Text

Pi· non mi curo della tua rampogna
Amor che lungamente m'hai beffato.
e 'l bianco per lo perso dimostrato.

Onde ben mi contenta el non servire.
poi che per te non si teme vergogna
falso, crudel e pien d'ogni menzogna.

Cos8 ti fida in Amor come in monico.
Credilo a me che tutto 'l d8 ne romico.

Translation

No longer do I care about your rebukes.
o Love, since for so long you have ridiculed me
and proved that black is white.

Therefore I am well satisfied to serve you no longer.
who taught me to be shameless, being yourself
false, cruel and full of every deceit.

One should no more trust in Love than in a monk.
Believe me, my mind is engrossed with it all day.
