Watch videos with other singers performing Torn'a l'ombra -Dove ten vai:
SPIRITO I Torn'a l'ombre di morte, Infelice Euridice, Ne più sperar di riveder le stelle, Ch'omai fia sordo a prieghi tuoi l'Inferno.
ORFEO Dove ten vai, mia vita? Ecco, io ti seguo, Ma chi me 'I niega, oimè? Sogno o vaneggio? Qual occulto poter di questi orrori, Da questi amati orrori Mal mio grado mi tragge e mi conduce A l'odiosa luce?
English Libretto or Translation:
FIRST SPIRIT Return to the shadows of death, unhappy Eurydice, and hope no more to see the stars again, for henceforth Hades is deaf to your prayers.
ORPHEUS Where are you going, my life? See I follow you! But who prevents me, alas? Am I dreaming or delirious? What occult power among these horrors drags me against my will from these horrors I love and leads me to the hateful light?
