DESPINA In uomini, in soldati Sperare fedeltà? ridendo Non vi fate sentir, per carità!
Di pasta simile Son tutti quanti: Le fronde mobili, L'aure incostanti Han più degli uomini Stabilità.
Mentite lagrime, Fallaci sguardi, Voci ingannevoli, Vezzi bugiardi, Son le primarie Lor qualità.
In noi non amano Che il lor diletto; Poi ci dispregiano, Neganci affetto, Né val da' barbari Chieder pietà.
Paghiam, o femmine, D'ugual moneta Questa malefica Razza indiscreta; Amiam per comodo, Per vanità! La ra la, la ra la, la ra la, la.
partono
English Libretto or Translation:
No. 12 - Aria
DESPINA You look for fidelity In men, in soldiers? laughing Don't tell me that, for pity's sake! All of them Are made of the same stuff; The quivering leaves, The inconstant breezes Have more stability Than men. Crocodile tears, Lying looks, Deceiving words, False endearments Are the basis Of their tricks. In us they only prize Their own pleasure; Then they despise us, Deny us affection, And from such tyrants There's no mercy to be had. We woman should pay out This hurtful, Impudent breed In their own coin; Let's love them To suit our convenience and our vanity!
