CORO di NINFE e PASTORI Lasciate i monti, Lasciate i fonti, Ninfe vezzose e liete. E in questi prati Ai balli usati Vago il bel piè rendete.
Qui miri il sole Vostre carole, Più vaghe assai di quelle Ond'alla luna, La notte bruna, Danzano in ciel le stelle.
Ritornello
Lasciate i monti, ecc.
Poi di bei fiori Per voi s'onori Di questi amanti il crine, Ch'or dei martiri Dei lor desiri Godon beati al fine.
English Libretto or Translation:
Balletto
CHORUS of NYMPHS & SHEPHERDS Leave the mountains, leave the fountains, charming, happy nymphs, and in these meadows rejoice your fair feet with your accustomed dances.
Here let the sun behold your roundelays, lovelier far than those which the stars in heaven dance to the moon in the darkness of night.
Ritornello
Leave the mountains, etc.
Then let these lovers' locks be honoured by you with fair flowers, that now they may rejoice, happy at the ending of torments, satisfied in their desires.
