Marie McLaughlin singing Marcellina´s aria Il capro e la capretta.
Haus für Mozart, Salzburg 2006
conductor: Nikolaus Harnoncourt
Il capro e la capretta
son sempre in amistà ,
l'agnello all'agnelletta
la guerra mai non fa.
Le più feroci belve
per selve e per campagne
lascian le lor compagne
in pace e libertà .
Sol noi povere femmine
che tanto amiam questi uomini,
trattate siam dai perfidi
ognor con crudeltà !
The billy-goat and the she-goat
Are always friends,
The male lamb and the female lamb
Never make war on each other.
The most ferocious wild animal
in the woods and in the country
Leaves their companions
in peace and freedom.
Only we poor women
That love so much these men,
Must deal always with cruelty from the
treacherous ones!
