SCENA QUINTA
Fiordiligi, Dorabella, Don Alfonso, Ferrando, Guglielmo, soldati e popolani.

Marcia militare in qualche distanza. Arriva una barca alla sponda; poi entra nella scena una truppa di soldati, accompagnata da uomini e donne

N. 8 - Coro

SOLDATI E POPOLANI
Bella vita militar!
Ogni dì si cangia loco;
Oggi molto, doman poco,
Ora in terra ed or sul mar.

Il fragor di trombe e pifferi,
Lo sparar di schioppi e bombe,
Forza accresce al braccio e all'anima
Vaga sol di trionfar.
Bella vita militar!

FIFTH SCENE

A boat arrives at the shore. During the following march, a troop of soldiers enters accompanied by townsmen and women. The afore mentioned.

No. 8 - Chorus

SOLDIERS
A soldier's life for me!
Every day a change of scene;
Plenty today, little tomorrow,
Now on land and now on sea.
The sound of trumpets and fifes,
The din of guns and shells
Lend strength to our arms and our spirits,
Longing only for victory.
A soldier's life for me!
