Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo:
No. 29a - AriaELETTRA
D'Oreste, d'Aiace
Ho in seno i tormenti,
D'Aletto la face
Già morte mi dà.
Squarciatemi il cuore
Ceraste, serpenti,
O un ferro il dolore
in me finirà.
Parte infuriata
English Libretto or Translation:
No. 29a - AriaELECTRA
Within my breast I feel
the torments of Orestes and of Ajax;
Alecto's torch
brings me death.
Tear out my heart,
you horned serpents,
or a sword
shall end my pain.
Exit in fury
