Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo:

ELVINO
Ah! tutto è il core!
Mentre la madre sottoscrive, e con essa i testimoni, Elvino presenta l'anello ad Amina.

Prendi: l'anel ti dono
Che un dì recava all'ara
L'alma beata e cara
Che arride al nostro amor.
Sacro ti sia tal dono
Come fu sacro a lei;
Sia de' tuoi voti e miei
Fido custode ognor.

CORO
Scritti nel ciel già sono,
Come nel vostro cor.

ELVINO
Sposi or noi siamo.

AMINA
Sposi!...
Oh! tenera parola!

ELVINO
Cara! nel sen ti posi
Le dà un mazzetto.
Questa gentil viola.

AMINA
Puro, innocente fiore!

ELVINO
Ei mi rammenti a te.

AMINA
Ah! non ne ha d'uopo il core.

AMINA ed ELVINO
Caro/a!
Dal dì che univa
I nostri cori un Dio,
Con te rimase il mio,
Il tuo con me restò.

TERESA, ALESSIO e CORO
Scritti nel ciel ecc.

English Libretto or Translation:

ELVINO
Ah! everything is the core!
While the mother signs, and with it the witnesses, Elvino presents the ring to Amina.

Take: the anel I give you
What a day it went to the altar
The alma blessed and dear
Which arrests to our love.
You are such a gift
How sacred it was to her;
Both of your votes and mine
Fido custodian each.

CHOIR
Written in the sky already,
As in your cor.

ELVINO
Spouses or we are.

AMINA
Newlyweds! ...
Oh! tender word!

ELVINO
Dear! in the sen you pose
He gives her a bunch.
This violet violet.

AMINA
Pure, innocent flower!

ELVINO
And you remind me of you.

AMINA
Ah! he does not have the core of it.

AMINA and ELVINO
Dear to!
From the day that united
Our choirs a God,
With you was mine,
Your with me remained.

TERESA, ALESSIO and CORO
Writings in the sky etc.
