ERNESTO E NORINA
Tornami a dir che m'ami,
dimmi che mia/mio tu sei;
quando tuo ben mi chiami
la vita addoppi in me.
La voce tua sì cara
rinfranca il core oppresso;
sicuro/sicura a te dappresso,
tremo lontan da te.
ERNESTO AND NORINA
Tell me again that you love me,
tell me that my / mine you are;
when you call me
my life, you are mighty in me.
The voice so dear to you
reigns the oppressed heart;
safe / secure to you near, I
tremble away from you.
