Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo:

Arioso Cesare

Alma del gran Pompeo,
che al cenere suo d'intorno
invisibil t'aggiri,
fur'ombre i tuoi trofei,
ombra la tua grandezza, e un'ombra sei. Così termina al fine il fasto umano.
Ieri che vivo occupò un mondo in guerra, oggi risolto in polve un'urna serra.
Tal di ciascuno, ahi lasso!
il principio è di terra, e il fine è un sasso, Misera vita! oh, quanto è fral tuo stato! Ti forma un soffio, e ti distrugge un fiato.

English Libretto or Translation:

Arioso Cesare

Alma del gran Pompeo,
that to the ash its around
invisibil t'aggi,
your trophies are dark
shade your size, and a shadow you are. Thus ends the human splendor.
Yesterday I lived occupied a world in war, today resolved in a greenhouse urn.
Tal of each, ouch lasso!
the principle is of earth, and the end is a stone, Misera vita! oh, how fral your state is! It forms a breath, and it destroys your breath.
