Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo:

SARA
(Ah! … All'afflitto è dolce il pianto
E la gioia che gli resta …
Una stella a me funesta
Anche il pianto mi vietò.
Della tua più cruda, oh quanto,
Rosamonda, è la mia sorte!
Tu peristi d'una morte …
Io vivendo ognor morrò.)

English Libretto or Translation:

SARA
(Ah! ... crying is sweet to the afflicted
And the joy left to him ...
A star to me fatal
Even crying forbade me.
Of your rawest, oh how much,
Rosamonda, it's my fate!
You perist of a death ...
I live every one I die.)
