Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo:

Aria: Dorinda
Ho un certo rossore, di dir quel che sento
s'è gioia o tormento, s'è gelo o un ardore, s'è alfine... nol so.

Pur piccolo meco bisogna che sia piacere, dolore,
s'è l'anima mia rinchiudere lo può.

English Libretto or Translation:

Aria: Dorinda
I blush, to speak about what I feel
Whether it’s ice or fire... I don’t know.

It must be small though, my share of pleasure or sadness,
If my soul is able to conceal it all.
