SCENA VII
Spiagge del mare ancora agitato attorniate da dirupi. Rottami di navi sul lido
No. 5 - Coro
Coro di gente vicina a naufragare
CORO VICINO
Pietà! Numi, pietà!
Aiuto oh giusti Numi!
A noi volgete i lumi...
CORO LONTANO
Pietà! Numi, pietà!
Il ciel, il mare, il vento
Ci opprimon di spavento...
CORO VICINO
Pietà Numi, pietà.
In braccio a cruda morte
Ci spinge l'empia sorte...

A sea coast surrounded by crags, with an angry sea.
Ships' wreckage on the shore

CHORUS NEARBY
Ye gods, have mercy!
Help, o just gods!
Turn your gaze on us ...
CHORUS IN THE DISTANCE
Ye gods, have mercy!
The sky, the sea, the wind
oppress us with fear ...
CHORUS NEARBY
Ye gods, have mercy!
Pitiless fate thrusts us
into the arms of dreadful death ...
