1: "Siqua sine socio"
Latin text:
Siqua sine socio,
caret omni gaudio;
tenet noctis infima
sub intimo
cordis in custodia.
English translation:
The girl without a lover
misses out on all pleasures,
she keeps the dark night
hidden
in the depths of her heart.
2: "Stetit puella"
Latin text:
Stetit puella
rufa tunica;
si quis eam tetigit,
tunica crepuit.
Eia.
Stetit puella
tamquam rosula;
facie splenduit,
os eius fioruit.
Eia.
English Text:
A girl stood
in a red tunic;
if anyone touched it,
the tunic rustled.
Eia!
A girl stood
like a little rose:
her face was radiant
and her mouth in bloom.
Eia!
3: "In truitina"
Latin Text:
In truitina mentis dubia
fluctuant contraria
lascivus amor et pudicitia.
Sed eligo quod video,
collum iugo prebeo:
ad iugum tamen suave transeo.
English Text:
In the wavering balance of my feelings
set against each other
lascivious love and modesty.
But I choose what I see,
and submit my neck to the yoke;
I yield to the sweet yoke.
4: "Dulcissime"
Latin Text:
Dulcissime,
totam tibi subdo me!
English Text:
Sweetest one! Ah!
I give myself to you totally!
