Aria di Bertarido
Dove sei, amato bene!
Vieni, l'alma a consolar!
Sono oppresso da' tormenti
ed i crudeli miei lamenti
sol con te posso bear.
Dove sei...
Bertarido's aria
Where you are, loved well!
Come, let's console you!
I am oppressed by torments
and the cruel my laments
I can bear with you alone.
Where are you...
