Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo:

BELCORE
Qua la mano, giovinotto,
Dell'acquisto mi consolo:
In complesso, sopra e sotto,
Tu mi sembri un buon figliuolo.
Sarai presto caporale
Se me prendi ad esemplar.
(Ho ingaggiato il mio rivale:
Anche questa è da contar.)

NEMORINO
Ah! non sai chi m'ha ridotto
A tal passo, a tal partito:
Tu non sai qual cor sta sotto
A sì semplice vestito;
Quel che a me tal somma vale
Non potresti imaginar.
(Ah! non v'ha tesoro eguale
Se riesco a farmi amar.)
Partono

English Libretto or Translation:

BELCORE
Here the hand, young man,
I'm comfortable with the purchase:
Overall, above and below,
You look like a good son.
You will soon be corporal
If you take me to exemplar.
(I hired my rival:
This too is to be counted.)

Nemorino
Ah! you do not know who has reduced me
At such pace, to this party:
You do not know what is underneath
A so simple dress;
What is worth this to me
You could not imagine it.
(Ah, there is no equal treasure
If I can make me love.)
They leave
