Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo:
ROCHEFORT, PERCY, SMETONOh! rio martir!
CORO
Delira.
ANNA
Cielo, a' miei lunghi spasimi
Concedi alfin riposo.
E questi estremi palpiti
Sian di speranza almen.
TUTTI
L'estremo suo delirio
Prolunga, o Ciel pietoso.
Fa che la sua bell'anima
Di te si desti in sen.
silenzio
odonsi colpi di cannone in lontano e suonar di campane.
Anna rinviene a poco a poco
ANNA
Chi mi sveglia? ove sono? che sento?
Suon festivo? che fia? favellate.
CORO
Acclamata dal popol contento
È Regina …
ANNA
Tacete … cessate.
Manca, ahi! manca a compire il delitto
D'Anna il sangue, e versato sarà.
si abbandona fra le braccia delle Damigelle
TUTTI
Ciel! risparmia al suo core trafitto
Questo colpo a cui regger non sa.
English Libretto or Translation:
ROCHEFORT, PERCY and SMEATON:Oh! cruel torment!
CHORUS:
She's dreaming.
ANNA:
Heaven: grant repose at last
to my long pangs
and at least let these last heartbeats
be ones of hope.
ALL:
Let her final delirium
be prolonged, merciful Heaven;
let her beautiful spirit
rise up to your bosom.
(Cannon shots are heard in the distance and the ringing of bells. Anna comes to, little by little.)
ANNA:
Who awoke me? Where am I? What do I hear?
A festive sound? what could it be? tell me..
CHORUS:
The Queen is acclaimed
by a happy people…
ANNA:
Be silent…cease.
There lacks, alas, there lacks only the blood of Anna
to complete the crime, and it will be spilt.
(she falls into the arms of her ladies)
ALL:
Heaven! Spare her wounded heart this blow
which she cannot bear.
