Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo:
TOSCAscattando
Il tuo sangue o il mio amore
volea... Fur vani scongiuri e pianti.
Invan, pazza d'orror,
alla Madonna mi volsi e ai Santi...
L'empio mostro dicea: già nei
cieli il patibol le braccia leva!
Rullavano i tamburi...
Rideva, l'empio mostro... rideva...
già la sua preda pronto a ghermir!
"Sei mia!" - Sì. - Alla sua brama
mi promisi. Lì presso
luccicava una lama...
Ei scrisse il foglio liberator,
venne all'orrendo amplesso...
Io quella lama gli piantai nel cor.
CAVARADOSSI
Tu!?... di tua man l'uccidesti? - tu pia,
tu benigna, - e per me!
TOSCA
N'ebbi le man
tutte lorde di sangue!
English Libretto or Translation:
TOSCAEither your blood or my love
He demanded: my entreaties and my tears were useless.
Wild with horror, I appealed in vain
To the Madonna and the Saints.
The damnable monster told me
That already the gallows
Stretched their arms skyward!
The drums rolled and
He laughed, the evil monster, laughed,
Ready to spring and carry off his prey!
Is it yes? He asked, and yes, I promised
Myself to his lust. But there at hand
A sharp blade glittered:
He wrote out the liberating pass,
And came to claim the horrible embrace -
That pointed blade I planted in his heart.
CAVARADOSSI
You, with your own hand you killed him?
You tender, you gentle - and for me!
TOSCA
My hands were reaking with his blood!
