Rigoletto - 'Caro nome' | |
ItalianGualtier Maldè...nome di lui sì amato scolpisciti nel core innamorato! Caro nome che il mio cor festi primo palpitar, le delizie dell'amor mi dêi sempre rammentar! Col pensiero il mio desir a te ognora volerà, e pur l' ultimo sospir, caro nome, tuo sarà. Tutte le feste al tempio mentre pregava Iddio, bello e fatale un giovane s' offerse al guardo mio... Se i labbri nostri tacquero dagli occhi il cor parlò. Furtivo tra le tenebre sol ieri a me giungeva... son studente, povero, commosso mi diceva, e con ardente palpito amor mi protestò. Partì...il mio core aprivasi a speme più gradita, quando improvviso apparvero color che m' han rapita, e a forza qui m' addussero nell' ansia più crudel. Giuseppe Verdi |
EnglishGualtier Maldè... name of my beloved, Brand this loving heart! Sweet name, you who made my heart throb for the first time, you must always remind me the pleasures of love! My desire will fly to you on the wings of thought and my last breath will be yours, my beloved. All parties to the temple and prayed to God, beautiful and fatal a youth offered to look after me… if your lips were silent I saw my heart speak. Suddenly into darkness came to me yesterday… I'm a poor student with emotion told me, and a fervent beat I protested my love I left… my sad heart hope is more acceptable when it suddenly appeared colored it has kidnapped me and here to force me It adduced the cruelest anxiety.
