Le violette - English translation

Original lyrics
Translation

Le violette

Rugiadose
Odorose
Violette graziose,
Voi vi state
Vergognose,
Mezzo ascose
Fra le foglie,
 
E sgridate
Le mie voglie,
Che son troppo ambiziose.

The violets

You dew-covered,
richly-scented,
graceful, lovely violets,
which are standing,
shy and bashful,
and half hidden
amongst the leaves.
 
You are scolding
my desires,
that are overly ambitious.
