Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo:
RodelindaMa tu per lo spavento trema,
vil consiglier, ministro indegno!
Me delle colpe tue giudice avrai;
io regnerò fellon, ma tu morrai!
Aria di Rodelinda
Morrai sì, l'empia tua testa
già m'appresta
un gradin per gire il trono.
Che del mio sposo novello,
né più bel dono
sò bramar.
Morrai (etc.)
Parte
English Libretto or Translation:
RodelindaBut tremble thou, vile counsellor, for fear,
unworthy minister, thou`lt have cause to fear,
I, as thy judge, thee, traitor, will arraign
and thou ́rt as sure to die as I to reign.
Yes, thou shalt die – I’ll make that head
the step, by which to thrones I’ll tread.
I`ll claim it of my new-made spouse,
he’ll grant it to cement our vows.
I know no gift will please me more
that he can grant, or I implore.
Yes, thou etc.
