Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo:
La Scena si finge in Milano nel Palazzo RealeAtto I
Scena I
Appartamenti di Rodelinda.
Si vede Rodelinda a sedere piangente; e poi
Grimoaldo, e Garibaldo con guardie.
Rodelinda
Ho perduto il caro sposo,
e qui sola alle sventure
vie più cresce il mio penar.
Che faro? Morir non oso,
che a me resta ancor il figlio,
e periglio è lo sperar.
English Libretto or Translation:
The Scene is MilanAct I
Scene I
The apartments of Rodelinda. Rodelinda
appears seated in a mournful posture and
weeping. Enter afterwards Grimaldo and
Garibaldo with
guards.
Rodelinda
My love, my life, is lost, is gone,
and I the swelling tide of woe
am left to meet, and meet alone,
while sorrows upon sorrows grow.
What shall I do, or wither turn?
I have a son, and dare not die;
look where I will, hope looks forlorn
and still portends new perils nigh.
