Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo:

Tonio durante la canzone sarà uscito di dietro al teatro e sarà ito ad appoggiarsi all'albero, ascoltando beato.
Nedda, finito il canto, fa per rientrare e lo scorge.


NEDDA
Sei là? credea che te ne fossi andato!

TONIO
ridiscendendo, con dolcezza
È colpa del tuo canto.
Affascinato io mi beava!

NEDDA
ridendo con scherno
Ah! ah! Quanta poesia!...

TONIO
Non rider, Nedda!

NEDDA
Va, va all'osteria!

English Libretto or Translation:

During this song Tonio has come out from behind the theatre and gone to lean against the tree, listening entranced. As Nedda ends the song, she notices him.

NEDDA
sharply, put out
So you're there!
I thought you'd gone.

TONIO
gently
The fault lies in your singing.
It fascinated me and made me so happy.

NEDDA
with a scornful laugh
What poetry! …

TONIO
Don't laugh, Nedda …

NEDDA
Go, off with you to the tavern.
