Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo:

Rullo di tamburi.
S'apre il portone della caserma, esce il Sergente con un picchetto di soldati, in mezzo al quale stanno parecchie donne incatenate. I soldati e le donne si arrestano avanti il porto.


IL SERGENTE
alla folla, ordinando di retrocedere
Il passo m'aprite!

Dalla nave scende il Comandante. Lo segue un drappello di soldati di marina, il quale si schiera a destra.

COMANDANTE
al Sergente
È pronta la nave.
L'appello affrettate!

BORGHESI, POPOLANI
ritirandosi poco a poco
Silenzio! L'appello cominciano già!

English Libretto or Translation:

Drumroll.
The door of the barracks opens, the Sergeant comes out with a picket of soldiers, in the middle of which several chained women are standing. Soldiers and women stop at the port.

THE SERGENT
to the crowd, ordering to recede
The pace you hear me!

The Commander descends from the ship. A squadron of navy soldiers follows him, who ranks to the right.

COMMANDER
to the Sergeant
The ship is ready.
The appeal hurry up!

BORGHESI, POPOLANI
withdrawing little by little
Silence! The appeal begins already!
