The lyrics I know are:
La rosa enflorece en el mes de Mai mi alma se escurece sufriendo del amor.
Los bilbilicos cantan en los arbos de la flor debajo se asentan los que sufren del amor.
Mas presto ven, palomba, mas presto ven a mi, mas presto tu, mi alma, que yo me vo morir.
And I'll attempt a translation:
The rose blooms in the month of May, my soul is shadowed by suffering of love.
The little birds sing on the blooming trees, underneath them seat those who suffer of love.
But come soon, beloved, come soon to me, soon, my soul, as I am going to die.
So sad, so beautiful...
