Original Italian:

La donna è mobile.
Qual piuma al vento,
muta d'accento e di pensiero.
Sempre un amabile,
leggiadro viso,
in pianto o in riso, è menzognero.

Refrain
La donna è mobil'.
Qual piuma al vento,
muta d'accento e di pensier!
e di pensier'!
e di pensier'!

È sempre misero
chi a lei s'affida,
chi le confida mal cauto il cuore!
Pur mai non sentesi
felice appieno
chi su quel seno non liba amore!

Refrain
La donna è mobil'
Qual piuma al vento,
muta d'accento e di pensier!
e di pensier'!
e di pensier'!

English translation:

Woman is flighty.
Like a feather in the wind,
she changes in voice and in thought,
always a lovely,
pretty face,
in tears or in laughter, she's untrue.
Refrain
Woman is flighty.
like a feather in the wind,
she changes in voice and in thought,
and in thought!
and in thought!

Always miserable
is he who trusts her,
he who confides in her his unwary heart!
Yet one never feels
fully happy
who from that bosom does not drink love!

Refrain
Woman is flighty.
Like a feather in the wind,
she changes her words,
and her thoughts!
and her thoughts!

Alternative translation:

A woman is fickle (or erratic/flighty).
Like a feather in the wind,
she changes her words (You can't tell what she's really saying or thinking)
and lovely face,
graceful visage, (or beautiful face)
that, in tears or in laughter, is deceitful.

Refrain
(A) Woman is fickle.
Like a feather in the wind,
she changes her words,
and her thoughts!
and her thoughts!

Weeping or laughing, (or wretched)
is untrustworthy.
He who confides in her his incautious (reckless) heart!
Yet one never feels
fully happy,
who from that bosom/breast does not sip/taste love.

Refrain
(A) woman is fickle.
Like a feather in the wind,
she changes in tone and in thought,
and in thought!
and in thought!
