Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo:
ANNALegger potessi in me!
Cavatina
Non v'ha sguardo a cui sia dato
Penetrar nel mesto core:
Mi condanna il crudo fato
Non intesa a sospirar.
Ah! se mai di regio soglio
Ti seduce lo splendore.
Ti rammenta il mio cordoglio,
Non lasciarti lusingar.
GIOVANNA
(Alzar gli occhi in lei non oso,
Non ardisco favellar.)
CORO
(Qualche istante di riposo
Possa il sonno a lei recar.)
Anna parte accompagnata da Seymour e dalle ancelle.
L'adunanza si scioglie a poco a poco.
La scena si sgombra, e non rimane dei lumi che una gran lampada, la quale rischiara la sala.
English Libretto or Translation:
ANNA:Could you but read it within me!
To no gaze has it been granted
to penetrate this sad heart;
An incomprehensible
cruel fate condemns me
to sigh in sorrow.
Ah! if ever the splendour
of the royal throne
seduces you,
remember my pain
don’t let yourself be dazzled.
JANE:
(I dare not raise my eyes to her,
nor can I make bold to speak)
CHORUS:
(A few moments of rest
might give her some sleep.)
(Anna leaves, accompanied by Seymour and by the maids. The company depart gradually. The stage empties and there remains no light but one large lamp stand which lights the room.)
