Libretto/Lyrics/Text/Testo:

IDRENO
Là  dal Gange a te primiero
Reco omaggi, o Dio possente:
Or sorridi tu clemente
A' bei voti del mio cor;
E mercede trovi omai
Un costante e vivo amor.

CORO
In tal dì l'Assiria omai
Vegga al trono un successor.
(Grandi e satrapi che precedono e
accompagnano Assur, seguito da schiavi,
che recheranno le offerte).


ASSUR
Sì sperate; sì esultate:
Cangierà  d'Assiria il fato:
Questo giorno desiato
D'alti eventi il dì sarà :
Al suo trono il successore
La Regina sceglierà :
La mia fede, il mio valore
Obbliare non vorrà .

IDRENO
E tu aspiri?...

OROE
(grave)
E tu pretendi?...

ASSUR
Di regnar, di Nino al trono.

OROE
Tu!... (che Orror!)

ASSUR
Sai pur ch'io sono...

OROE
(marcato)
So chi è Assur... Sì tutto io so.

English Libretto or Translation:

Idreno
There from the Ganges to you I first
I have gifts, or mighty God:
Or smile gently
A 'beautiful vows of my heart;
And mercy find omai
A constant and lively love.

CHOIR
In this day Assyria omai
A successor sees the throne.
(Great and satraps that precede e
accompany Assur, followed by slaves,
who will deliver the offers).

ASSUR
Yes hope; yes exulted:
Fate of Assyria will be able to:
This desolate day
On high events the day will be:
On his throne the successor
The Queen will choose:
My faith, my value
Obbliare will not want.

Idreno
And you aspire? ...

OROE
(serious)
And you claim? ...

ASSUR
Of regnar, of Nino to the throne.

OROE
You! ... (that Orror!)

ASSUR
You know that I am ...

OROE
(marked)
I know who Assur is ... Yes, I know everything.
