Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo:
GIORGIO
Ebben, se volete, v'appressate.
Cinta di fiori e col bel crin disciolto
Talor la cara vergine s'aggira,
E chiede all'aura, ai fior con mesto volto:
"Ove andò Elvira? Ove andò? Ove andò?"
CASTELLANI, CASTELLANE
Misero cor!
GIORGIO
Bianco vestita, e qual se all'ara innante
Adempie il rito, e va cantado: "il giuro";
Poi grida, per amor tutta tremante:
"Ah, vieni, Arturo, ah, vieni, Artur!"
CASTELLANI, CASTELLANE
Ah! quanto fu barbaro il traditor!
Misero cor, morrà d'amor!
GIORGIO
Geme talor qual tortora amorosa,
Or cade vinta da mortal sudore,
Or l'odi, al suon dell'arpa lamentosa,
Cantar d'amor, d'amor.
CASTELLANI, CASTELLANE
Misero cor!
GIORGIO
Or scorge Arturo nell'altrui sembiante,
Poi del suo inganno accorta, e di sua sorte,
Geme, piange, s'affanna e ognor più amante,
Invoca morte, morte.
GIORGIO, CASTELLANI, CASTELLANE
Cada il folgor sul traditor!
Ahi! la misera morrà d'amor!
English Libretto or Translation:
GEORGE
Ebben, if you want, go there.
Cinta di fiori and with a nice dissolved crin
Talor the dear virgin wanders,
And he asks the aura, ai fior with a sad face:
"Where did Elvira go?" "Where did he go?" "Where did he go?"
CASTELLANI, CASTELLANE
Misero cor!
GEORGE
White dressed, and what if to the rising star
He fulfills the ritual, and goes sings: "the swear";
Then he cries out, for all trembling love:
"Ah, come, Arturo, ah, come, Artur!"
CASTELLANI, CASTELLANE
Ah! how barbaric the traitor was!
Misero cor, he will die of love!
GEORGE
Geme talor what tortora amorous,
Or falls won by mortal sweat,
Or the odes, to the sound of the plaintive harp,
Cantar d'amor, d'amor.
CASTELLANI, CASTELLANE
Misero cor!
GEORGE
Or he sees Arturo in the other semblant,
Then of his shrewd deception, and of his fate,
She moans, cries, gets busy and each more lover,
Invokes death, death.
GIORGIO, CASTELLANI, CASTELLANE
Drop the folgor on the traitor!
Ouch! the miser will die of love!
