Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo:
ANNArinviene
Ove sono? … Oh mio Signor!
Si avvicina ad Enrico: egli è fremente.
Tacciono tutti e abbassano gli occhi.
ANNA
In quegli sguardi impresso
Il tuo sospetto io vedo;
Ma, per pietà Io chiedo,
Non condannarmi, o Re.
Lascia che il core oppresso
Torni per poco in sé.
ENRICO
Del tuo nefando eccesso
Vedi in mia man la prova.
Il lagrimar non giova;
Fuggi lontan da me.
Poter morire adesso
Meglio sarà per te.
PERCY
(Cielo! un rivale in esso,
Un mio rival felice!
E me l'ingannatrice
Volea bandir da sé?
Tutta ti sfoga adesso,
Ira del fato, in me.)
GIOVANNA
(All'infelice appresso
Poss'io trovarmi, o Cielo!
Preso d'orror, di gelo,
Come il mio cor non è?
Spense il mio nero eccesso
Ogni virtude in me.)
SMETON e ROCHEFORT
(Ah! l'ho perduta io stesso,
Colma ho la sua sventura!
Il giorno a me si oscura,
Non mi sostiene il piè.
Poter morire adesso
Meglio sarìa per me.)
English Libretto or Translation:
ANNA:Where am I! Oh my lord!
(Recovers herself, approaches Henry: he is fuming. All are silent and lower their eyes.)
Stamped on these faces
I see your suspicion;
but I ask for mercy,
do not condemn me, O King.
Let this oppressed heart
recover itself for a bit.
HENRY:
In my hand behold the proof
of your abominable intemperance.
Tears won't help;
depart far from me.
It would be better for you now
if you were able to die.
PERCY:
(Heavens! A rival in him.
A rival of mine happy!
And the deceiver wanted
to banish me from her?
Let all the wrath of fate
be poured out on you, in me now.)
JANE:
May I be able to find myself
close to the unhappy ones, O Heaven.
Is not my heart as if overtaken
by horror, by ice?
My black excesses
extinguished every virtue in me.
SMEATON and ROCHEFORT:
Ah! I myself have ruined her,
I have intensified her misfortune!
The day turns to darkness for me.
I can barely stand up.
It would be better for me
if I could die now
