Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo:
RecitativoFERRANDO e GUGLIELMO
Fuor la spada! Scegliete
Qual di noi più vi piace.
DON ALFONSO
placido
Io son uomo di pace,
E duelli non fo, se non a mensa.
FERRANDO
O battervi, o dir subito
Perché d'infedeltà le nostre amanti
Sospettate capaci!
DON ALFONSO
Cara semplicità, quanto mi piaci!
FERRANDO
Cessate di scherzar, o giuro al cielo!...
DON ALFONSO
Ed io, giuro alla terra,
Non scherzo, amici miei;
Solo saper vorrei
Che razza di animali
Son queste belle,
Se han come tutti noi carne, ossa e pelle,
Se mangian come noi, se veston gonne,
Alfin, se Dee, se donne son...
FERRANDO e GUGLIELMO
Son donne,
Ma... son tali, son tali...
DON ALFONSO
E in donne pretendete
Di trovar fedeltà?
Quanto mi piaci mai, semplicità!
English Libretto or Translation:
RecitativeGUGLIELMO
Draw your sword!
Choose which of us you'd prefer.
DON ALFONSO
calmly
I'm a peaceable man
And don't touch steel
Except at table.
FERRANDO
Either fight,
Or say at once
Why you suspect our sweethearts
Could possibly be untrue.
DON ALFONSO
Sweet simplicity, how I love it!
FERRANDO
A truce to your jests,
Or I swear, by heaven ...
DON ALFONSO
And I swear by this world,
My friends, I'm not jesting;
I'd only like to know
What kind of creatures
Are these beauties of yours,
if they're flesh and blood and bone like us,
If they eat like us, and wear skirts,
If, in fact, they're goddesses or women ...
FERRANDO AND GUGLIELMO
They're women, but the like of them ...
DON ALFONSO
And in woman you expect
To find fidelity?
How I love such simplicity!
